摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the potential for biological upgrading to improve quality of certain crude oils and liquid fuels, using whole cell biocatalysts decrease aromaticity sensitize aromatic heterocycles subsequent heteroatom removal. The presents some specific examples research directed toward future applications information about aerobic bacteria currently being tested as ring opening speculates on application their activities petroleum (bio-processing). There is bio-processing reduce content refined products. Bioprocessing would complement conventional refining technologies result in improved fuel at lower capital operating costs with reduced environmental impact.
