Session on Biofuels and Biorefineries:

As the fact is known that fossil fuels are going to last for only 100 more years, the best renewable alternative way is biofuel. The synthesis requires biological processes, such as anaerobic digestion, fermentation, transesterification. Biofuels can be extracted directly from plants, or indirectly from agricultural, commercial, domestic, and/or industrial wastes. This is different from other renewable energy sources, biomass can be directly converted into bio fuels using various substrates.

Due to a lot of disadvantages in the conventional methods of recovering oil there is a need of another option and in the search for environment friendly solutions, growing attention has been given to biotechnology such as the use of microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR).The MEOR constitute injection of microorganisms with necessary nutrients into the oil well, and under favorable conditions microbial population grows and their metabolic products produces oil.

Session on Bioaugmentation:

In waste water treatment plants the application of activated sluge which consists of microrganisms which biodegrade the pollutants present, has limitations because many pollutants are not efficiently eliminated. To overcome these limitations, bioaugmentation has been developed, i.e. adding specific and efficient pollutant-biodegrading microorganisms that will increase the ability of this microbial community to biodegrade contaminants, and thus the waste water can be recycled.

Market Analysis

The prime focus of International Congress on Industrial biotechnology and Bioprocessing 2018 is to feature recent research going on in this field. This event is a platform where researchers and industrialists from around the world can meet and showcase the best of the industrial biotech industry and form connections and partnerships that will lead to growth in the sector for years to come.

Industrial biotechnology is seen as an important parameter for bio economy. It is one of the most efficient and greener approaches to drug development, enzyme and vaccine production using energy saving bio reactors, bio-fuels and bio-refineries with renewable raw materials. These days it is mentioned as “the third wave” in biotechnology. If industrial biotechnology taken to advanced level, it may have a greater influence on the global range than other fields in biotechnology.

Global Market Study of Industrial biotechnology:

USA: Its been reported by Ernst & Young, that last year's sales of $13.4 billion and revenues of $18.6 billion is a lot more than the previous two decades’ figures. This year, the industry has recruited more than 153,000 people in the United States. Last year, American biotechnology industries has invested $9.9 billion on R&D.

Asia-Pacific: The Asia-Pacific biotech market has expanded with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 16% during 2010-2012. It has been found that Japan and China are controlling this industry, while countries like Malaysia, India and Singapore are also in the limelight and are looking forward to dominate around 70% of the global market.

Europe: A prosperous bio-based European economy is mainly because of industrial biotechnology sector and more than 60% of the world’s enzymes, has been produced, thus making Europe, a world leader in Industrial biotechnology field.The major countries in the European Union that came up in this sector included Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, France, UK and Sweden.

The biotech industry also known as “white biotechnology” in Europe spends nearly $10.32 billion on R&D and $23.2 billion on revenue. According to reports, the European biotech industry appointed approximately 215,000 employees last year.

Denmark is a Bio Tech champion with advance developed research. A well established agricultural heritage fostered a research industry in Denmark 150 years ago and since then, research methods have continuously developed. The main reasons for choosing Denmark :

It has the world’s highest percentage of patents in biotechnology.

It has the largest drug developing industries in Europe. (Ernst and Young, 2015)

It the best country in Europe for development of biotechnology. (Scientific American, 2016)

It is one of the most R&D intensified countries in the world, and the best in Europe when it comes for researchers’ concentration.(Bloom-berg Innovation Index, 2017)

Denmark is also a hub for students and researchers from all over the world studying in top Universities like Aalborg University, Roskilde University, Technical University of Denmark, Aarhus University etc, and this event will be very helpful for them to learn new advance techniques and can present their work which can be later commercialized by the industrialists.
