Method for producing aliphatic carboxylic acids |
摘要 |
The invention relates to a micro-organism comprising a hydrogenase enzyme system which is capable of converting carbon dioxide into formic acid and a second enzyme system which is capable of converting formic acid into aliphatic carboxylic acids having a chain length of five or more carbon atoms. Also described are various methods for producing oil, as well as other aspects of the invention. |

1. A method for producing aliphatic carboxylic acids, the method comprising
converting carbon dioxide into formic acid by catalysis with a hydrogenase enzyme system in a medium; and converting formic acid to aliphatic carboxylic acids having a chain length of five or more carbon atoms by catalysis with a second enzyme system in the medium, wherein the hydrogenase enzyme system and the second enzyme system are from the Acetobacter strain having accession number NCIMB 41808 or a micro-organism derived therefrom. |
