Bioreactors for microbial culture and lignocellulose fermentation

his procurement is made on behalf of the Department of Biology and Biological Engineering, atChalmers University of Technology, Göteborg, Sweden.At the Industrial Biotechnology (IndBio) Division, our aims are to produce chemicals, materials, energycarriers and food ingredients using enzymes and microorganisms, and as such contribute to thedevelopment of a bio-based, sustainable society. A large number of important traditional and novelproducts will be produced by industrial scale biotech processes in the future. Industrial biotechnologyas a field is growing rapidly, as it offers an alternative to production based on petroleum-basedresources. Through the integration of different bio-based processes into large-scale biorefineries, wecan convert cheap and renewable resources such as plant biomass (lignocellulose) into a palette ofproducts. We focus our research efforts on developing novel efficient and robust cell factories, findingand utilizing new biomass-degrading enzymes, bioelectrochemistry and algal biotechnology.
