Chinese scientists convert CO2 into nutritious food with 74% protein yield

A new bioprocess converts CO2 and electricity into high-quality single-cell protein using a dual-reactor system. The protein has a 74% concentration, surpassing traditional sources like fish meal. This method reduces environmental impacts by minimizing pH adjustments and wastewater generation. It offers a sustainable solution to global hunger while promoting a circular carbon economy. The process could revolutionize food production, addressing both climate challenges and food security concerns.
