Canvas Prints from Science Photo Library
Algae growing in a photobioreactor
Algae growing in a photobioreactor with a researchers shadow. Algae are photosynthesising micro-organisms that can convert carbon dioxide into commercially valuable lipids, carbohydrates and proteins. The photobioreactor contains algae, water and trace elements within a closed system. It allows an even distribution of sunlight, without contamination problems typically found in open systems such as outdoor algae farms.Algae lipids can be used as an edible oil or processed into biodiesel, and algae carbohydrates can be processed into bioethanol. Dried algae is high in protein and can be used as a fertiliser, animal feed or burned as biomass. Photographed at the Fraunhofer Institute, Germany

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating world of algae growing in a photobioreactor, with the intriguing presence of a researcher's shadow. Algae, these remarkable photosynthesizing micro-organisms, possess an incredible ability to convert carbon dioxide into valuable lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. The photobioreactor itself is a closed system that contains algae, water, and trace elements while ensuring an even distribution of sunlight without the contamination issues often encountered in open systems like outdoor algae farms. The potential applications of algae are truly astounding. Their lipids can be transformed into edible oil or processed into biodiesel for renewable energy purposes. Similarly, their carbohydrates can be converted into bioethanol as another sustainable fuel alternative. Additionally, dried algae holds high protein content and can serve as fertilizers or animal feed or even be burned as biomass. Captured at Germany's prestigious Fraunhofer Institute by Science Photo Library, this image represents cutting-edge research in biotechnology and green chemistry. It symbolizes our ongoing quest for eco-friendly solutions to address pressing environmental challenges in the 21st century. By exploring the immense potential of these tiny organisms through advancements in algal cultivation techniques within controlled environments like photobioreactors, we pave the way towards cleaner fuels and greener technologies that harness solar energy efficiently. This photograph encapsulates both scientific innovation and nature's extraordinary capacity to provide sustainable resources for our ever-evolving world.
