A Novel Approach for Environmentally Friendly Production of Single Cell Protein From Petrochemical Wastewater Using a Halophilic Microorganism in Different Conditions
Abstract:In this study, biodegradation of petrochemical wastewater and production of single cell protein from it as carbon source was investigated using several process parameters. The process parameters such as carbon source, type of phosphorus source, phosphorus source concentration, type of nitrogen source, nitrogen source concentration, and temperature were considered. In order to investigate the influence of process parameters, a factorial design using Taguchi method was applied with six factors at four levels. Th… Show more

“…IRU1 degrade petrochemical wastewater and use it as carbon source for single cell protein production in different conditions. They obtained SCP with 76.4% protein content [34]. Soya bean hull obtained from soya bean oil extraction is a cheap feed ingredient with a high fiber content.…”
Single cell protein (SCP) is the first product of the fermentation process and has proven to be a good protein alternative. Food competition is becoming more intense as the world’s population continues to grow. Soon, SCP may be able to compensate for a protein deficit. Various global businesses are focusing on SCP production, and the scope of its application is expanding as time and knowledge increases. High quantities of SCP can be produced by microorganisms, such as algae, yeast, fungi and bacteria, due to their fast development rate and the significant level of protein in their chemical structure. Beside proteins, SCP contains carbohydrates, nucleic acids, lipids, minerals, vitamins and several important amino acids. SCP has been an effective substitute for more expensive protein sources such as fish and soybean products. In conclusion, SCP can easily replace traditional protein sources in human and animal feed without detrimental effects. Potential substrate candidates and optimization strategies for SCP production have been extensively studied. This review article focuses on the various aspects of SCP, from its production, using different substrates, player microorganisms and nutritional benefits, to its economic aspects.
