The Chair of Industrial Organic Chemistry and Biotechnology conducts multidisciplinary research with an emphasis on industrial applications. In addition to biocatalysis, further objectives involve merging chemo- and biocatalysis and developing related multi-step one-pot bioprocesses, thereby permitting technically viable environmentally friendly pathways to bulk chemicals, fine chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Subsequent investigations in the preceding domain will focus on the conversion of biorenewable raw materials for the production of industrial chemicals. Among chemocatalytic technologies being used in our group, a particular focus is on high-pressure technologies such as hydroformylation, for which a pilot plant has been established in addition to our chemical and biological research lab infrastructure. Furthermore, the field of study has expanded from academia to industry with various Industrial and International cooperation partners.
