Bioprocessing: Engineering Know-How in Greater Demand than Ever

Introduction

Several studies forecast that the share of biotechnological processes in the total sales volume of chemical products will probably soar to around 15–20 % by 2010. Alone for the chemical industry, the potential value added of biotechnological production has been predicted to reach € 11–22 billion worldwide annually by then. The value added stems not only from new biotechnological products, but also from the effects of improved manufacturing processes. At ACHEMA 2006 in May 2006 in Frankfurt am Main - the world's leading event for the process industries - besides the integral general topic Biotechnological Equipment, which focuses on the equipment sector a special Industrial Biotechnology Exhibition and a Partnering Conference took place, thus paying tribute to the growing significance of industrial biotechnology and supporting international networking.
