Applications

The authors of the present invention have developed a single-unit biotechnological process for the recovery of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and triacylglycerides (TAGs) from lipid streams using biomass in the form of mixed microbial cultures (MMCs). In particular, they have designed a procedure that favors the development of a CMM with the capacity for the simultaneous accumulation of PHA and TAG intracellularly, using a simple process that is easy to implement in the industry.
