REPLACER at the Saxon Transfer Forum 2023
+++ 16. NOVEMBER 2023 +++
Halle/Leipzig Airport, is a place to take off and therefore perfect for a meeting of the Saxon transfer community. b-ACT matter and REPLACER participated on November 16, 2023 at Saxon Transfer Forum and presented their work at a presentation stand.
Achieving sustainable feed proteins with “REPLACER”
In the REPLACER project, researchers are developing so-called hybrid living materials. It is about microbial proteins with a low carbon footprint, high acceptance and affordable costs – through the use of greenhouse gases.
REPLACER participates at Long Night of Science
The team, led by coordinator Dr. Rohan Karande, presented their project to visitors, using column bioreactors to demonstrate how microbial biomass can be produced from carbon dioxide and methane as a value-added animal feed product.
Capillary biofilm reactors
Capillary biofilm reactors (CBRs) are attractive for growing photoautotrophic bacteria as they allow high cell-density cultivation. Here, we evaluated the CBR system’s suitability to grow an artificial consortium composed of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and Pseudomonas sp. VBL120.
