$$$$ factor
The major drawbacks in commercialisation of PHA are 1) high cost of production and recovery 2) price Raw material ~ 40-50% of the total production cost Current price with natural producer like Ralstonia eutropha is US $6-10 per kg, about 3-5 times more expensive than PP

Novel Business Using Biomass Energy from Palm Oil Industry in Malaysia
CDM provides profitable area for novel business to which biomass energy can be supplied from palm oil industry with a reasonable price
for novel business CDM provides a complete methane fermentation system and change lagoon area into a profitable area. CDM provides electricity using the methane fermentation system for novel business with a competitive price. 1. CDM can reduce GHG by sealing the lagoons. 2. Prevention of undesirable smell by modern treatment. 3. Local employment can be encouraged from new business.
Based on the economic growth in Malaysia, the development of new oil palm plantations in the tropical rainforest will soon be no longer economically viable. In order to meet the increasing demand for palm oil in the future, palm oil industry must cooperatively stay with other industries and people >>> 3P (Profit, People, Planet)
