Microalgae Tolerance to High Concentrations of Carbon Dioxide: A Review (Report‪)‬

In an effort to retard this increase and, therefore, the greenhouse effect, most industrialized countries have joined in a policy to hold carbon dioxide emissions [2]. However, it is not clear if technology exists to achieve this goal.
