“…The technical, economical and environmental feasibility of negative emission technologies (NET) (Bui et al, 2018), such as BECCS, are currently under debate (Scott & Geden, 2018;Van Vuuren, Hof, Van Sluisveld, & Riahi, 2017;Xenias & Whitmarsh, 2018). To overcome this problem, several studies have proposed the use of biofuels/bioenergy derived from phototrophic microorganisms (instead of plants) as a means to simultaneously displace fossil fuels and capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (Beal, Archibald, Huntley, Greene, & Johnson, 2018;Vadlamani, Pendyala, Viamajala, & Varanasi, 2019;Wijffels & Barbosa, 2010).
