Article Synopsis
- Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are promising biodegradable plastics but are held back by high production costs.
- This study explored using Halomonas boliviensis to produce polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) from oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) in high-salinity environments.
- Results showed H. boliviensis effectively synthesized PHB from various substrates, with the highest yield from glucose, indicating OPEFB could serve as a cost-effective and sustainable alternative for PHB production.
