The immobilization is a process of catalyst (cells) attachment to the matrix. It separates effectively the cells from the liquid and gas phases, allowing a significant increase in the culture density. This review describes various approaches used for immobilization of photosynthetic cells. The main attention is focused on advantages and limitations of immobilized systems for hydrogen photoproduction.
