"Coal-to-Protein Breakthrough: Chinese Scientists Make Strides in Sustainable Food Production"
Chinese scientists have developed a groundbreaking method to convert coal-derived methanol into protein, addressing the increasing demand for animal feed. This innovative approach, led by researchers at the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, has resulted in a cost-effective and efficient protein production technology using yeast strains. The high conversion rate and nutritional richness of the resulting protein make it a promising alternative to traditional protein sources like soybeans and fishmeal, with potential for large-scale production and market expansion.
