A novel approach to enhance the growth and quality of microalgae using plant hormones
Prof. Aécio D’Silva, Ph.D
Microalgae are microscopic organisms that can convert sunlight and carbon dioxide into biomass and biofuels, such as biodiesel, bioethanol, and biogas. However, the current methods of cultivating microalgae are not efficient enough to meet the increasing demand for renewable energy. One of the challenges is to increase the biomass and biofuel content of microalgae while reducing the cost and environmental impact of the process. A possible solution is to use phytohormones, which are natural or synthetic compounds that regulate the growth and development of plants and algae.
