Title Bioprospecting waste for polyhydroxyalkanoates production: embracing low carbon bioeconomy
Year 2024
Published
Abstract Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biodegradable polymer biosynthesized via bacterial fermentation of sugars and fatty acids. PHA are considered a promising material to aid in mitigating plastic pollution due to their biodegradability. However, major bottleneck in the commercial feasibility of PHA production is the cost of PHA which remains a distinct challenge in the upscale production substituting the petroleum-based synthetic plastics for wider usage. The discharge of wastes and by-products of agricultural and industrial origins has created severe environmental pollution. Hence, waste utilization as carbon sources in the production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) would reduce the production costs, lessen waste and reduce pollution. This review provides an overview of utilisation of wastes and by-products for PHA production and the possibility of large-scale production. Potential drawbacks and opportunities are discussed in this review in integrating the sustainable production of PHAs into the global circular economy. This can pave the way in embracing low carbon bioeconomy.
