Yes remundo is full of process (mentioned elsewhere in the 2 reports provided by the student engineers above), but off topic compared to the bacterial transformation that interests the project Laigret ...

I have to put these 2 report in the downloads ...

And one more process:

Global Bioenergies, located on the Genopole campus near Paris, today announced that it has obtained the proof of concept of an artificial metabolic pathway allowing the synthesis of isobutene, a synthon that can be converted into fuels, polymers and several products. of amenities.

Macha Anissimova, Director of Research, commented: "We are very proud to have achieved this key objective ahead of schedule. We benefited from the help of Genoscope and the analytical chemistry platform of the University of Evry-Val d'Essonne. The bioproduction of gaseous hydrocarbons will make it possible to obtain pure products, with high yields and at low cost. " According to Professor Dieter Söll, "The data on isobutene formation presented by Global Bioenergies is convincing, and I am now looking forward to seeing the process optimized and running on a large scale."

"The development of such an artificial metabolic pathway is a key achievement and has considerable implications. Standard enzyme and metabolism engineering technologies can now be applied to turn this proof of concept into an industrial process, "added Professor Donald Hilvert.

Marc Delcourt, co-founder and CEO of the company concluded: "We are now focused on the industrialization of the process, which will be financed by a second round of the table, in preparation."

The members of the scientific council:

Dr. Bernard Badet leads a team at the Institute of Chemistry of Natural Substances in Gif-sur-Yvette. He is interested in the mechanism of certain enzymes and develops chemical tools for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

The teacher. Dr. Donald Hilvert heads a laboratory at ETH in Zurich, Switzerland. His research program focuses on the study of the mechanisms of operation and evolution of enzymes, and on the mime in the laboratory of the properties of these remarkable catalysts.

The teacher. Jean-Marc Paris headed the R&D division of Rhône Poulenc Rorer in charge of the discovery of antibiotics before joining the chemical company Rhodia, as Scientific Director for organic chemistry and biotechnologies. He is now honorary professor at the National School of Chemistry in Paris.

The teacher. Dieter Söll, a member of the US Academy of Sciences, is leading a laboratory at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, USA, which studies protein biosynthesis with the goal of characterizing biocatalysts in the field. evolutionary plan.

Dr. Jean Weissenbach is director of Genoscope, which he founded in 1997. Now integrated into the Genomics Institute of CEA, Genoscope is looking for new enzymatic activities using genomics and large-scale experimentation. Jean Weissenbach is a member of the Academy of Sciences, and CNRS 2009 gold medalist.

October 13 press release

Wouldn't these "great researchers" like to take a look at the Perfingens, please? : Cheesy:

And what are the basic compounds for the synthesis of this fuel?

Where are you??
The dangerous bacteria is scary !!!
And nobody starts !!
But she drags everywhere in the earth !!
So on meat at 37 ° C and a little soil we are sure to make gangrene and oil in small quantities.
Any dead animal that rotates does this and is not very dangerous in nature !!!
First, you have to reproduce in very low volume like Laigret just to know what he knew at the practical level, with just a few vials!
In my opinion it is no more dangerous than an ordinary septic tank disinfecting on the outside, what septic tank emptiers do not do on themselves!
Personal experience on my septic tank and its emptier !!!

A less complete partial digestion is desired than for making methane but heavier oil.
As for the digestion in an intestine with a complete flora of bacteria, it must be established a flora of bacteria adapted to the difficult anaerobic conditions and pressure giving underground oil, where the bacteria adapt themselves spontaneously !!
