Research Period 3 years
General Description of the Research Project This collaborative research aims to construct carbon recycling systems where the heterotrophic microorganisms, thraustochytrids are cultivated using food and beverage-processed waste and wastewater to produce polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as docosahexaenoic and eicosapentaenoic acids (DHA and EPA) and to demonstrate that the resultant biomass can be used as alternative fish oil to produce PUFAs-enriched aquacultural and poultry products
