BioCee in MIT Technology Review’s “10 Emerging Technologies 2010″
MIT Technology Review May-Jun 2010
The May/June edition of MIT Technology Review lists their “Ten Emerging Technologies 2010″. “Solar Fuel” has been selected as one of the “technologies that are likely to change the world”. The article describes how organisms are used to produce fuel directly out of CO2 in the air, water, and sun light. Whereas some teams focus on modifying and optimizing the organisms, BioCee’s core competence is to provide an efficient, reliable and low-cost bioreactor. Companies mentioned in the article are Joule Biotechnologies, Synthetic Genomics, and BioCee / University of Minnesota Biotechnology Institute.
BioCee is a member of a consortium that has received one of the first ARPA-E grants in fall 2009, for the development of “direct solar fuel” technology.
