Thu. Dec 4, 2025 2:15 AM - 3:35 AM UTC
Thu. Dec 4, 2025 2:15 AM - 3:35 AM UTC
Room 15(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 5F, 501)
Organizer: Atsushi Ogura (Nagahama Institute of Bioscience and Technology), Michio Suzuki (The University of Tokyo)
Calcium carbonate produced by biomineralization is a means of long-term fixation of carbon dioxide. In order to promote the use of calcium carbonate-based CO₂ fixation systems, we need to consider both molecular biological knowledge and emerging scientific evidence. With the goal of contributing to carbon neutrality, we will discuss the issues and strategies for achieving carbon neutrality while exploring the synergistic effects of CO₂ uptake by microalgae. We will also discuss collaboration with industry and environmental applications, and explore specific pathways for societal implementation.
