Event Description
- Full Description:
- Established in 1990, the Biochemistry Alumni Lecture brings together past and present students and staff of the biochemistry discipline within UQ's School of Chemistry & Molecular Biosciences.
This year's lecture, Biobased Building Blocks for the chemical industry - Opportunities and Challenges for (bio)chemical reaction routes, will be presented by Professor Volker Sieber from the Technical University of Munich.
Abstract
The utilization of biomass and renewable energy for the production of chemical building blocks and carriers of energy are key aspects of a sustainable bioeconomy. For this to succeed enabling chemistry and biotechnology have to join forces in the development of efficient conversion processes. Several academic and technical examples are presented in this lecture.
