- Microbiofuels technology implements production methods based microbiorefineries, i.e. micro-organisms placed in a specific environment;
- Microbiofuel technology could be used for recycling industrial waste, including gaseous waste such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide, and for producing valuable biofuels by biotransformation.
