WHAT DOES BIOCONVERSION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Bioconversion

The term Bioconversion, also known as biotransformation refers to the use of live organisms often microorganisms to carry out a chemical reaction that is more costly or not feasible nonbiologically. These organisms convert a substance to a chemically modified form. An example is the industrial production of cortisone. One step is the bioconversion of Progesterone to 11-alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone by Rhizopus nigricans. Another example of this is the conversion of organic materials, such as plant or animal waste, into usable products or energy sources by biological processes or agents, such as certain microorganisms, some Detritivores or enzymes. The conversion of organic materials, such as plant or animal waste, into usable products or energy sources by biological processes or agents, such as certain microorganisms. The Bioconversion Science and Technology group performs multidisciplinary R&D for the Department of Energy's relevant applications of bioprocessing, especially with biomass. Bioprocessing combines the disciplines of chemical engineering, microbiology and biochemistry.

Definition of bioconversion in the English dictionary

The definition of bioconversion in the dictionary is the use of biological processes or materials to change organic substances into a new form, such as the conversion of waste into methane by fermentation.
