The Solar-Biofuels consortium is co-ordinating a range of research streams to analyse and optimize the use of micro algae for bio-methane production:
* IMB Queensland (A/Prof. Hankamer): Industrial feasibility studies are being conducted to evaluate the use of micro algae produced in closed bioreactors for bio-gasification.
* University of Bielefeld (Prof. Kruse): In cooperation with the industrial partner Biogas-Nord in Bielefeld, Germany, are con-ducting research on the analysis and optimisation of algae biomass as an alternative substrate for bio-methane production.
* University of Karlsruhe (Prof. Posten): The optimisation of bioreactor systems de-signed for high throughput algae production for bio-methane production.
