Description
Environmental Biotechnology discusses the commercial applications of bioprocess to environmental problems. Applications include the use of bacteria and fungi to detoxify wastes, converting them to usable substances. Prevention of biodeterioration of valuable materials is also an important area of study. Lectures cover biodeterioration, biomineralogy, biodegradable plastics, bioremediation, biofuels and waste water treatment. Students present research reviews and conduct experimental projects.
