ABSTRACT:
Mixtures of saturated or unsaturated C.sub.2 -C.sub.5 hydrocarbons are produced by aerobically cultivating a microorganism belonging to a wide variety of genera Fungi, Yeasts, Bacteria and Actinomycetes in a water-containing medium, and recovering the hydrocarbon mixtures from the liquid phase or/and gaseous ambience of the medium. Industrial wastes and various biomass can be employed as nutrient sources in the cultivation.
