| Beneficiaries |
Organization of production of protein feed for animals
|
| Activities |
The production of bioprotein from natural gas has been successfully established, leveraging methanotrophic bacteria that convert methane into high-protein biomass. This process enables the large-scale production of animal feed ingredients without reliance on traditional agricultural resources such as arable land, water, or sunlight.
|
| Impact |
- Environmental benefit: utilization of methane, a greenhouse gas with
a global warming potential 28 times greater than carbon dioxide.
- Economic advantage: protein production without photosynthesis, viable in regions where natural gas is inexpensive.
- Potential for utilizing hazardous methane emissions from sources such as coal mines, converting biogas into animal feed.
