Biochemical engineering/ Bioprocess engineering

Biochemical Engineering also known as Bioprocess Engineering is a


branch of Chemical Engineering or Biological Engineering. It is a
branch of engineering that deals with the design and construction of
unit processes that involve biological organisms or molecules.

The efficient utilization of physical, chemical and biological


processes to convert raw materials into useful products, at
minimal cost, with minimal energy consumption, and with
minimal impact on the environment.
