The discipline of biocatalysis has grown significantly in recent years, leading to a surge in industrial applications. Products made through enzymatic transformations are utilized in various industries, including the food, feed, chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic sectors. Furthermore, with the aim to create more sustainable and environmentally friendly processes, enzymes are increasingly applied in cascade systems and in tandem with chemical process steps.
With its interdisciplinary approach, this conference provides a unique opportunity to learn from and network with experts from academia and industry.
The Competence Center of Biocatalysis at the ZHAW promotes biocatalysis as a complementary method to classic organic synthesis and aims to help bridge the gap between academic laboratories and the production plant. By connecting relevant research competences CCBIO strives to develop a comprehensive biocatalytic toolbox consisting of enzyme libraries and methods, which will facilitate the development of biocatalytic and biosynthetic processes for the chemical and pharmaceutical industry.
