2. 1. Heterocystous cyanobacteria, Dps proteins and H2 production

   Author : Christoph Howe; Karin Stensjö; Felix Howe; Nir Keren; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : H2 production; Cyanobacteria; Dps; ferritin-like proteins; iron; nutrient limitation; oxidative stress; biofilm; photobioreactor; iron homeostasis; H2O2;

   Abstract : To mitigate climate change, CO2-emitting technologies have to be exchanged by renewable alternatives such as H2. H2 can be produced by cyanobacteria, but major efforts to enhance H2 production yields by genetic modifications or optimised cultivation conditions resulted in energetic photo-to-H2 conversion efficiencies of 4.

4. 2. Cyanobacterial Hydrogen Metabolism - Uptake Hydrogenase and Hydrogen Production by Nitrogenase in Filamentous Cyanobacteria

   Author : Pia Lindberg; Peter Lindblad; Kornél Kovács; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; cyanobacteria; biohydrogen; Nostoc; hydrogen production; hydrogen evolution; hydrogen metabolism; nitrogenase; hydrogenase; hydrogen; uptake hydrogenase; hupSL; hydrogen uptake mutant; uptake hydrogenase mutant; photobioreactor; hydrogenase accessory genes; hyp; transcription; RT-PCR; NtcA; mass spectrometry; heterocyst; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; immunology; infectious diseases; Mikrobiologi; immunologi; infektionssjukdomar;

   Abstract : Molecular hydrogen is a potential energy carrier for the future. Nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria are a group of photosynthetic microorganisms with the inherent ability to produce molecular hydrogen via the enzyme complex nitrogenase. This hydrogen is not released, however, but is recaptured by the bacteria using an uptake hydrogenase. READ MORE

5. 3. Communities of microalgae and bacteria in photobioreactors treating municipal wastewater

   Author : Ivo Krustok; Monica Odlare; Emma Nehrenheim; Jaak Truu; Catherine Legrand; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : Everyone who uses water produces wastewater. This inevitability creates several problems that increase with the growth of the population and industry. READ MORE

6. 4. A passage to wastewater nutrient recovery units : Microalgal-Bacterial bioreactors

   Author : Anbarasan Anbalagan; Jesus Zambrano; Sebastian Schwede; Carl-Fredrik Lindberg; Emma Nehrenheim; Francisco Gabriel Acién Fernández; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microalgae; Bacteria; Carbon; Nitrogen; Light; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : In recent years, the microalgal–bacterial process has been considered to be a very attractive engineering solution for wastewater treatment. However, it has not been widely studied in the context of conventional wastewater treatment design under Swedish conditions. READ MORE

7. 5. Functional and structural characterizations of phytoplankton-bacteria interactions in response to environmental challenges

   Author : Eva Sörenson; Catherine Legrand; Elin Lindehoff; Jarone Pinhassi; Sonya Dyhrman; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interactions; phytoplankton; microalgae; bacteria; communities; aquatic; diversity; functions; structure; species-specific; microbiome; core microbiome; response diversity; resilience; resource partitioning; competition; coexistence; amplicon sequencing; metatranscriptome; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

   Abstract : Microorganisms, such as phytoplankton and bacteria, make up ≈70% of aquatic biomass and contribute 50-85% of the oxygen in Earth’s atmosphere. The microbial loop concept and the discovery of the large diversity in microbial communities acknowledge that biotic interactions between microorganisms in addition to resource competition enable the recycling of energy and nutrients in aquatic food webs.
