Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) production from methane in bubble column bioreactors: Process simulation and design optimization

The pressing problem posed by plastic pollution has led to other, environmentally friendly alternatives, such as polyhydroxyalkanoates. This work proposes an innovative process to produce poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by replacing expensive substrates, such as sugars, with methane. A two-step process was...
