Investigating algal CO2 capture through screening of Qatari desert microalgae & cyanobacteria strains by Al Muraikhi, Mariam

“…In order to overcome these hurdles, this research focused on selecting local desert microalgae strains with high tolerance to increased CO2 levels, and developing growth media in order to increase the solubility of CO2. Forty-five locally isolated marine microalgae strains were screened for growth under increased CO2 concentrations, ranging from 0.04% to 30% (v/v). …”
