Biobased extraction and depolymerization technology for PHA, PHA monomers, and biomass hydrolysate production
(2018) 11th Annual TechConnect World Innovation Conference and Expo, Held Jointly with the 20th Annual Nanotech Conference and Expo,the 2018 SBIR/STTR Spring Innovation Conference, and the Defense TechConnect DTC Spring Conference 3. p.24-27- Abstract
Aiming at a feasible industrial scale bioplastic (PHAs) production, a microbial-based PHA-extraction technique was developed and investigated for extraction of different kinds of PHAs and a variety of well-studied producing microbial strains. This technology could make bioplastics production free of the use of organic solvents or other recovery chemicals. The technology allows the co-production of other valuable components from non-PHA cellular biomass. Moreover, an enzymatic depolymerization process was developed to produce PHA monomers form the recovered native granules. Via this technology, high-value products can be produced and explored for different innovative applications. Developing and upscaling this bio-based technology could... (More)

Via this technology, high-value products can be produced and explored for different innovative applications. Developing and upscaling this bio-based technology could help in production of bioplastic, it monomers, and single-cell hydrolysate at minimum cost and zero-wastes.
