Research project

Carbon Recycling: Converting Waste Derived GHG into Chemicals, Fuels and Animal Feed (CCnet)

Project overview

The Carbon Recycling Network will promote those aspects of carbon recycling that support the re-use and exploitation of single carbon (C1) greenhouse gases, CO, CO2 and CH4.
The focus is on gas fermentation, primarily using chemoautotrophs, and seeks to explore the potential of anaerobic digestion (AD) as a gas fermentation feedstock generator.
