“Sustainable and efficient production process to drive the protein ingredients market for microbial source in the coming times”
The process of producing protein ingredients from animal and plant sources is very resource intensive. It is very time-consuming and requires a large amount of land, energy, and water. Microbial sources of protein offer various benefits to the manufacturers with respect to savings in terms of land and water use (up to 98% water savings). Thus, the process also helps with the reduction of carbon footprint. Therefore, though the microbial source of proteins may appear as a niche market today, it is expected to grow at a very fast pace in the coming times to emerge as one of the most significant alternative sources of protein.
