摘要：
A method is provided for producing a biofertilizer in which a cyanobacteria and other photosynthetic microorganisms naturally occurring in the type of soil to which the biofertilizer is to be applied are reproduced in a photobioreactor using by-product CO 2 and the reproduced microorganisms are incorporated in the bio fertilizer. The method may form part of an integrated coal and biomass to liquids (ICBTL) system in which a carbon-based feed is converted to liquids by direct liquefaction and optionally by indirect liquefaction and the liquids are upgraded to produce premium fuels. CO 2 produced by the process is used to produce algal biomass and photosynthetic microorganisms in a photobioreactor. Optionally, lipids extracted from the some of the algal biomass is hydroprocessed to produce fuel components and biomass residues. Some or all of the algal biomass and photosynthetic microorganisms are used to produce the natural bio fertilizer.
