Bioreactor Operating Strategies for Improved Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Productivity

Microbial polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are promising biodegradable polymers that may alleviate some of the environmental burden of petroleum-derived polymers. The requirements for carbon substrates and energy for bioreactor operations are major factors contributing to the high production costs and e...
