Overview
The increasing awareness in sustainability has been pushing forward the development of bioprocess in replacement of harsh chemical process. Many companies are transforming their production processes into biochemical process to achieve greater sustainability. Bioprocess, which is also termed as the “greener process”, has been the hot topic in various research fields.
In this talk, the rising opportunities of biochemical engineers in the field of chemical industry will be shared. Also, the increasing importance of engineers with PhD qualifications in the industry will be discussed. This talk is targeted to prospect graduates from bioprocess background with interest to further their study.
