Integrated production and separation of biosurfactants

Process Biochemistry, 2019
Environmentally friendly, microbially produced surfactants known as biosurfactants have recently seen an explosion in commercial activity and interest due to a reduction in the cost of production, though these costs still limit biosurfactant use in bulk applications.
