Microalgae grown in waste water or macroalgae grown at sea could be potential biofuel crops of the future. But with technological hurdles to overcome and EU renewable energy targets looming, will the UK algal biofuel industry bloom or stagnate?
The Society of Biology has partnered with the 欧美AV to bring together a panel of expert researchers and policy makers to discuss this timely and important topic.
Dr Michele Stanley FSB, director of the Algal Bioenergy Special Interest Group, will chair the meeting. Dr Stanley is a principal investigator in microalgal molecular phycology at the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS).
Other speakers are Oliver Chadwick, head of biofuels regulation at the Low Carbon Fuels department of the Department for Transport and Duncan Eggar, the BBSRC's Bioenergy Champion.
