Mixed methane-utilizing cultures for production of micro-organisms

摘要

A process for the production of micro-organisms in which a methane-utilising micro-organism is grown under aerobic conditions in the presence of (a) one or more methanol-utilising micro-organisms which is/are capable of metabolising methanol produced by the growing methane-utilising micro-organisms, and (b) one or more non-methylotropic micro-organisms which is/are capable of metabolising organic substances produced by the methane and/or methanol-utilising micro-organisms.
