Methanol Protein
Methanol protein production mainly uses methanol as a carbon source and uses selective microorganisms to produce single-cell protein. Methanol protein is called second-generation single-cell protein. Compared with other single-cell proteins, methanol protein has the characteristics of abundant resources, easy access to raw materials, no occupation of arable land and production without being affected by weather conditions, large-scale industrial production, stable protein quality, and high nutritional value.
