Biosystems Engineering Biosystems Engineering is the field of engineering most closely allied with advances in biology. BE emphasizes two main areas: bioprocess engineering – with its basis in microbiology, and ecological engineering -with its foundation in ecology. The field focuses on the sustainable production of biorefinery compounds (biofuels, bioactive molecules, and biomaterials) using metabolic pathways […]
