Microorganisms and bioprocesses are provided that convert gaseous C1 containing substrates, such as syngas, producer gas, and renewable Hcombined with CO, into nutritional and other useful bioproducts.
Microbial Conversion Of Co2 And Other C1 Substrates To Vegan Nutrients, Fertilizers, Biostimulants, And Systems For Accelerated Soil Carbon Sequestration
Microorganisms and bioprocesses are provided that convert gaseous substrates, such as renewable Hand waste COproducer gas, or syngas into high-protein biomass that may be used directly for human nutrition, or as a nutrient for plants, fungi, or other microorganisms, or as a source of soil carbon, nitrogen, and other mineral nutrients. Renewable Hused in the processes described herein may be generated by electrolysis using solar or wind power. Producer gas used in the processes described herein may be derived from sources that include gasification of waste feedstock and/or biomass residue, waste gas from industrial processes, or natural gas, biogas, or landfill gas.
