Book "Fundamentals and Applications of Microbial Polyester Production"

Detailing the polymer "microbial-produced polyester," which possesses the properties of both biomass and biodegradable plastics, is environmentally friendly and attracts the most attention!

Book Title: Fundamentals and Applications of Microbial Polyester Production ~ From Biosynthesis, Basic Physical Properties, Higher-order Structures, Molding Processing, Biodegradability, to Application Development ~ Publication Date: November 20, 2023 I hope this book can contribute, even in a small way, to the growth of PHA as an essential material for building an environmentally friendly and sustainable society, surpassing general-purpose resins like polyethylene and polypropylene. **Features of this Book** ➢ Detailed description of the polymer "Microbial Polyester (Polyhydroxyalkanoate, PHA)," which possesses the properties of both biomass plastics and biodegradable plastics, and is considered the most promising solution to the challenges of petroleum-based synthetic plastics. ➢ Comprehensive research on microbial polyester, which has been considered difficult to commercialize, covering various aspects from biosynthesis, scaling up to commercial levels, to overcoming challenges related to structure and physical properties for practical application. ➢ A must-have book for future research and practical development, encompassing research results from the past to the latest, considering the fact that many researchers from diverse fields are advancing PHA research. ➢ In response to the rapidly changing microbial nomenclature, a new and old comparison table has been created with the cooperation of leading experts.
