[ Towards Carbon Neutral ]
The carbon dioxide emissions generated by industrial activities represent a critical global challenge that must be addressed to achieve carbon neutrality. Among the biological strategies for reducing carbon dioxide, the utilization of microalgae and macroalgae has emerged as a prominent approach. Both organisms are photosynthetic, relying on light and carbon dioxide for growth, and their remarkable capacity for carbon dioxide absorption positions them as key contributors to carbon neutrality.

Microalgae and macroalgae effectively absorb atmospheric carbon dioxide through photosynthesis, converting it into organic matter and playing a vital role in the ecosystem. Additionally, these organisms hold significant industrial potential, with applications in hydrogen gas, biofuels, food products, cosmetics, and various other sectors. Consequently, strategies that leverage microalgae and seaweeds for carbon reduction are gaining attention as sustainable approaches that can simultaneously advance environmental protection and economic benefits. By harnessing the capabilities of these photosynthetic organisms, we can pave the way towards a more sustainable future while addressing the pressing issue of climate change.

[ Synchronous Behavior in Bio-CCU ]
Recent research suggests the potential of utilizing microalgae for simultaneous nutrient removal and production of value-added products. This process can be effectively achieved through biological and chemical analysis approaches. Such strategies are expected to contribute to sustainable resource management and environmental protection.
