The direction of research: (1) the biological precursor base material (lactic acid and succinic acid), including the construction of genetic engineering strain, and optimization of fermentation metabolic regulation, fermentation scale production technology and product purification and amplification.(2) biological energy (fiber alcohol, methane, hydrogen), mainly around the new anaerobic bacteria with cellulosic ethanol type fermentation engineering construction, more efficient saccharification, strain coupling of fibers, the production of methane, straw dry fermentation production of biogas engineering technology for biofuels research.
The team is introduced:
Zhou Sheng DE, male, born in August 1962.In 1997 graduated from the auburn university PhD in polymer science, microbiology, after studying at the university of Florida microbial molecular genetics and biotechnology postdoctoral.Who work in the United States, northern Illinois university and was hired as the biological energy international co., LTD., director of the department of molecular biology, genetic build, responsible for new energy industry production strains in 2008 won the award for the United States IFAS research at the university of Florida, in 2010 the United States who's who.Now the chutian scholars distinguished professor of hubei university of technology.Zhou Sheng professor mainly engaged in biological energy and biological materials research field, good at industrial microbial strains and molecular genetic transformation research.In January 2013, Zhou Sheng professor to be included in the third group of "one hundred plan" innovation project.After to be included in the "one hundred plan", he lead the team to obtain one sub-project of the ministry of science and technology "twelfth five-year" support plan, approved by the national natural science fund project 1 item, 2 hubei province department of projects, no.12, one research project.Related research achievement has SCI papers published more than 30 articles, a total of 18 to apply for the international and domestic patents, including 8 patents have been authorized.And the related enterprise signed a cooperation agreement, the contract amount of 6 million yuan.
