Robust and cost-saving static solid cultivation method for lipid production using the chlamydospores of Phanerochaete chrysosporium

摘要

BackgroundDuring current submerged fermentation for microbial lipid production, the large-scale reactor operations inevitably consume substantial amounts of water and electricity for aeration, stirring, and temperature control and result in the operational costs almost exceeding the biodiesel value produced. Thus, developing a novel low-cost cultivation strategy is urgently needed by microbial lipid industry.
