Postgraduate Degree: Innovative Bioprocessing for

1 week ago


Stellenbosch, South Africa Stellenbosch University Full time

**Bioprocess development for the production of valuable chemicals and innovative food products from sugarcane**

**Location**: Department of Process Engineering, Stellenbosch University, Stellenbosch

**Degree level**: Full-time research-based Masters or PhD degree in Chemical Engineering

The global sugarcane industry is under substantial pressure to diversify its product range from the conventional sugar, ethanol and electricity regime, to include a broader range of green chemicals, biomaterials and innovative food components. Such a diversification strategy holds potential for new revenue streams that will create a sustainable future for this socially-important agroprocessing industry. Sugarcane will in the future be considered as more of an industrial crop rather than just a source of sugar, with multiproduct facilities, referred as “biorefineries,” considered as a model for such expansion of the commercial footprint of the industry.
