Bioconversion of Lignocellulosic Residues into Single-Cell Protein (SCP) by Chaetomium

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Recent Developments on Genus Chaetomium

Part of the book series: Fungal Biology ((FUNGBIO))

Abstract

Single Cell Protein (SCP) is a term coined in the 1960’s to embrace microbial biomass products which were produced by fermentation. SCP production technologies arose as a promising way to solve the problem of worldwide protein shortage. They evolved as bioconversion processes which turned low value by-products, often wastes, into products with added nutritional and market value. Intensive research into fermentation science and technology for biomass production, as well as feeding, has resulted in a profound body of knowledge, the benefits of which now span far beyond the field of SCP production. Microbial sources of single-cell proteins are presented in this chapter. Various bacteria, filamentous fungi, yeast and algae have been used for the production of single-cell proteins. Methods for cultivation of microorganisms for single-cell protein production and bioconversion of lignocellulosic residues into a single-cell protein are presented in this chapter with special reference to genus Chaetomium.
