The invention relates to methods for enriching monomer content in a cycloalkane oxidation process mixed organic waste stream. In particular, the methods involve combining a biocatalyst with a mixed organic waste stream from a cycloalkane oxidation process, and enzymatically converting dimeric and/or oligomeric components of said waste stream into monomeric components. The methods may enrich the content of diacids, adipic acid, and/or other α,ω-difunctional C6 alkanes in the mixed organic waste stream. Additionally, the treated mixed organic waste streams may have improved burning efficiency.

An object of the present invention is to construct a production system that enables efficient production of organic acids using blue-green algae, which are photosynthetic microorganisms, by utilizing carbon dioxide and thereby increasing an amount of organic acids produced. The present invention relates to blue-green algae overexpressing a clock protein gene and a method for producing organic acids by culturing the blue-green algae.
