Microorganisms and Energy

Microbial processes constitute a useful, though unconventional source of energy, especially in developing countries. At present, many microorganisms are being exploited, or being thought to be exploited, as alternative sources of energy. Biogas is a good example. Alcohol produced by microbial fermentation is added to petroleum products to supplement the scarce fuels. Microorganisms synthesize hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons either of which may serve as liquid fuel.
