“…In the context of data obtained for alkane-assimilating yeasts in general (reviewed by Levi et al 1979;Rehm andReiff 1981,1992;Fukui and Tanaka 1981a,b;BUhler and Schindler 1984), and based on progress made in the past decade as given in this chapter, some of the potential practical applications of C. maltosa in particular can be discussed as follows:…”

“…1 and 6). The knowledge of alkane-assimilating yeasts was repeatedly reviewed, especially in the golden age of petroleum microbiology and biochemistry until the end of the 1970s (for earlier references see Levi et al 1979;Fukui and Tanaka 1981a,b;Rehm andReiff 1981, 1982;Buhler and Schindler 1984;Tanaka and Fukui 1989).

“…However due to the rise in price of petroleum derivatives and the competition with conventional feed protein, the development of SCP processes in Western industrial countries and in Japan was stopped for economical and political reasons in the mid 1970s. Nevertheless, the long-term perspectives of SCP are sometimes discussed more positively (Rehm 1986;Senez 1986). …”

Methanotrophic bacteria can use methane as their only energy and carbon source, and they can be deployed to manufacture a broad range of value-added materials, from single-cell protein (SCP) for feed and food applications over biopolymers, such as polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), to value-added building blocks and chemicals. SCP can replace fish meal and soy for fish (aquacultures), chicken, and other feed applications, and also become a replacement for meat after suitable treatment, as a sustainable alternative protein. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) like PHB are a possible alternative to fossil-based thermoplastics. With ongoing and increasing pressure toward decarbonization in many industries, one can assume that natural gas consumption for combustion will decline. Methanotrophic upgrading of natural gas to valuable products is poised to become a very attractive option for owners of natural gas resources, regardless of whether they are connected to the gas grids. If all required protein, (bio) plastics, and chemicals were made from natural gas, only 7, 12, 16–32%, and in total only 35–51%, respectively, of the annual production volume would be required. Also, that volume of methane could be sourced from renewable resources. Scalability will be the decisive factor in the circular and biobased economy transition, and it is methanotrophic fermentation that can close that gap.
