What I would highlight: This course is great. It targets for experts who are now working in this industry or understudies of related orders that will work in this sometime in the near future. The instructors are wonderful, I truly loved the recordings, TAs react truly quick, and substance are testing. 8 hs for each week for me was insufficient. I am taking again next version.
What could be improved: Nothing bad.
Would you recommend this course?: Yes

What I would highlight: Fabulous course. Good material, recordings, contextual analysis and illustrations. It effectively requires over 8 hours/week of exertion. Worth time, however. I think this is one the best courses in Edx.
What could be improved: Everything OK.

Course programme

As fossil-based fuels and raw materials contribute to climate change, the use of renewable materials and energy as an alternative is increasingly important and common. This transition is not a luxury, but rather a necessity. We can use the unique properties of microorganisms to convert organic waste streams into biomaterials, chemicals and biofuels. This course provides the insights and tools for the design of biotechnology processes in a sustainable way. Five experienced course leaders will teach you the basics of industrial biotechnology and how to apply these to the design of fermentation processes for the production of fuels, chemicals and foodstuffs. Throughout this course, you will be challenged to design your own biotechnological process and evaluate its performance and sustainability. This undergraduate course includes guest lectures from industry as well as from the University of Campinas in Brazil, with over 40 years of experience in bio-ethanol production. The course is a joint initiative of TU Delft, the international BE-Basic consortium and University of Campinas.
