The use of marine or terrestrial microorganisms for long-term sequestration of CO2 is a possible solution to reduce the CO2 content in atmosphere. This thesis work focuses on calcifying organisms, in particular the cyanobacteria, which can fix CO2 as biomass and calcium carbonate. The latter is insoluble in water; precipitates may therefore constitute a long term sink. Understanding of the calcification mechanisms induced by cyanobacteria and the possibility of controlling these processes are necessary to develop a technology for CO2 sequestration. This biotechnology could be an alternative technology to CO2 capture and geological storage. Synechococcus strain PCC8806, marine cyanobacteria purified by the Institute Pasteur de Paris is used ...
