Team:Aalto-Helsinki/Modeling propane
Under construction
Introduction
Propane is a commonly used, convenient and clean-burning fuel, currently produced from non-renewable sources. Our project is about producing propane in bacteria, paving way for its sustainable production from renewable biomass. Ultimately, the pathway could be transferred to cyanobacteria, producing propane from CO2 and solar energy.
In our mathematical model our goal is to grasp the important concepts underlying the experiments made in the lab, and to see how those concepts could help us produce more propane. By having a better understanding of the ideas that govern our project, we could see the influence of each compound in the reaction pathway and have a basis to make decisions that would have a long term impact in our results.
