Biotechnological production of high-value yeast based animal feed additives from CO2 (CarboFeed)
Abstract
One of the main challenges of the next century is the CO2 emission reduction in a sustainable way in order to mitigate climate change. Further, the increasing food demand of the growing world population has to be covered under preservation of the diversity of natural ecosystems. Our aim is to tap CO2 as a sustainable resource in order to provide a commercial solution for the climate issue. With a novel yeast strain, CO2 can be converted into high-value biomass which is used as an animal feed additive, without using agricultural area.
