Abstract

One of the best-known greenhouse gases, CO2, has been increasing in the last decade of about 1.7%. To overcome the well-known global problems related to this gas, researchers of all over the world are working very hard in order to develop any strategies to seriously solve this issue. In this chapter, the authors focus their attention on one of the possible solutions to the problem: bacteria that are CO2 capture cells which have carried out this task since ancient times. In our work we make an excursus on all the biochemical processes of CO2 capture carried out by bacteria, ending with a detailed comparison of the most studied enzymes. One of the alternatives will be to genetically modify the organisms known to date to speed up their conversion process.
