제목 Efficient Bioconversion of Methane to Methanol Using Novel Type I Methanotroph Isolated from Ethanol Fermentation Sludge
초록 A novel methanotroph was isolated from ethanol fermentation sludge located in Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, Republic of Korea. The isolated strain was analyzed using various characterization techniques such as phylogenetic comparison, electron microscopy and biochemical analysis. Culture conditions including the concentration of substrate and ions were optimized for the cell growth.
Using the methanotroph whole cell as a biocatalyst, two-step reactions were carried out to convert methane into methanol. Reaction conditions were optimized to obtain high titer and productivity of methanol. Our reaction system and novel methanotroph suggest an efficient strategy for the conversion of methane to value-added methanol.
