Using techno-economic modelling to determine the minimum cost possible for a microbial palm oil substitute

Using techno-economic modelling to determine the minimum cost possible for a microbial palm oil substitute

Background: Heterotrophic single-cell oils (SCOs) are one potential replacement to lipid-derived biofuels sourced from first-generation crops such as palm oil. However, despite a large experimental research effort in this area, there are only a handful of techno-economic modelling publications. As s...
