“…are well‐known for their high tolerance toward toxic chemicals including solvents (Nikel, Martinez‐Garcia, & de Lorenzo, ; Wierckx, Ballerstedt, de Bont, & Wery, ), the robustness of metabolism (Belda et al, ), and flexibility in adaptation to various environmental fluctuations and stimuli, for example, oxidative stress (Ebert, Kurth, Grund, Blank, & Schmid, ). However, P. putida is an obligate aerobic bacteria, which in industrial scale production will often encounter the problems of oxygen transfer, oxidative carbon loss, and more investment in expensive equipment and additional utility (Noorman, ). On the other hand, a classical anaerobic bacterium will typically have many alternative pathways to ferment the provided substrate into undesirable by‐products.…”
