Acetic Acid as an Indirect Sink of CO2 for the Synthesis of Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA): Comparison with PHA Production Processes Directly Using CO2 as Feedstock
White biotechnology is promising to transform CO2 emissions into a valuable commodity chemical such as the biopolymer polyhydroxyalkanaotes (PHA). Our calculations indicated that the indirect conversion of acetic acid from CO2 into PHA is an interesting alternative for the direct production of PHA f...
