Microbial impact on subsurface H2 storage in porous reservoirs
Subsurface H2 storage could balance yearly fluctuations in energy production and demand. In this project, we elucidate the impact of microbial... -
MicroSynC
Microbial processes can be explored to generate the array of products from syngas. This programme deals with developing novel microbial syngas... -
Electricity to supplement syngas fermentation for improved CO2 capture
Syngas is a feedstock for anaerobic bacteria to produce chemicals. Syngas-fermenting microbes oxidize up to two-thirds of the CO to CO2. In this... -
Enhancement
Creating value out of greenhouse gas mitigation through the transformation of CO2 and CH4 into compounds with high market price. -
Using electricity to supplement syngas fermentation for improved CO2 capture
Syngas is a feedstock for anaerobic bacteria to produce chemicals. Syngas-fermenting microbes oxidize up to two-thirds of the CO to CO2. In this... -
Isolation of novel thermophilic carboxydotrophic microbes for syngas bioconversion
Syngas is a flexible feedstock that can act as substrate for microbial fermentation. In this project we aim to isolate novel microbes, from... -
Fermenting syngas to biodegradable plastics
Syngas, derived from waste biomass, is a toxic, corrosive and explosive mixture of CO, H2 and CO2. Let’s feed it to microbes! My aim is to... -
Uncovering microbial interactions for methylated compounds
Microorganisms such as sulfur reducing bacteria, methanogens and acetogens use methylated compounds in their metabolism. This project aims to... -
Syngas to platform chemicals: a matter of microbial teamwork
Syngas to platform chemicals: a matter of microbial teamwork - WUR Project Syngas to platform chemicals: a matter of microbial teamwork Syngas is a... -
Microbial synthesis gas fermentation for the production of bio-based products
Synthesis gas can be formed from a large variety of wastes and can subsequently act as substrate for microbial fermentation processes, bringing the...
