What is Microbial PHA Production from Waste Raw Materials about?

The application of biotechnological processes for industrial production can be regarded as promising for sustainable development, although for a range of products, biotechnological production strategies have not yet passed the test of economic viability. This is often caused by the cost of the raw materials. Here, a viable solution strategy is identified by the utilization of a broad range of waste and surplus materials that can be upgraded to the role of feedstocks for the biomediated production of desired end products such as polyhydroxyalkanoate biopolymers. The selection of the appropriate waste stream as a feedstock for biotechnological purposes mainly depends on the global region where the production plant will be constructed. To save costs for transportation, facilities for the production of biopolymers, biofuels and biochemicals
