Pilot-scale production of leucine from CO2

The fed-batch bioprocess for leucine production with M. marburgensis mutant strains in bioreactors has proven to be scalable to 150 L pilot-plant scale without substantial losses in leucine quality


Technology readiness The overall technology readiness level (TRL) of the leucine production process from CO2 with Methanothermobacter marburgensis as an…
