Abstract

Chemical engineering plays a critical role in bioinformatics and biotechnology by providing the tools and technologies necessary for the development of bio-based products, pharmaceuticals, and bioinformatics tools. The integration of chemical engineering principles into biological systems enables the efficient production of biopharmaceuticals, biological therapeutics, and bio-based materials. This article explores the contributions of chemical engineers to biotechnology, focusing on areas such as fermentation, protein expression, bioprocess optimization, and the development of bioinformatics tools to enhance biotechnology research and applications. Additionally, the paper examines the challenges and future directions for the further integration of chemical engineering in biotechnology and bioinformatics.
