About problem of absorption of greenhouse gas by chlorophyilsynthesizing microalgae in the presence of sulfur dioxide

Abstract

The presence of non-competitive reverse inhibition by sulfur dioxide in the process of photosynthesis based on the Lineweaver-Burk theory was theoretically justified and experimentally proved. The mathematical description of the growth of the cells of the microalgae is given and as a result of processing experimental data the growth rates of the algae at certain values of inhibitor concentration was defined. Based on the obtained values the analytical dependence of growth rate of biomass from the substance of inhibitor was redused. The maximum value of concentration of sulphur dioxide which may occur photosynthesis and biomass growth of microalgae was set.
