Bioproducts
Bioproducts are biochemicals, proteins, or polymer building blocks derived from the bioprocessing of renewable resources. Produced in large volumes, bioproducts form the building blocks for renewable fuels, biodegradable plastics, food additives, and therapeutic compounds. The goals of the research are to understand the molecular basis of the biology and biochemistry of living organisms that transform renewable resources and agricultural commodities to bioproducts, and then apply bioprocess engineering to achieve manufacturing systems that carry out such transformations in a cost-effective manner.
