Valorization Of Waste Transformer Oil As Alternative Carbon Substrate For Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production By Transformer Oil-Degrading Bacteria

The growing problems of environmental pollution resulting from accumulation of synthetic plastic wastes have been generating great concern. Consequently, a sustained effort is needed to provide better alternatives to the non-biodegradable plastics. However, the production cost of biodegradable, eco-...
