               The Scientific Federation delighted to welcome you to Global Summit on Chemistry & Chemical Engineering which will be held on February 26-27 at Abu Dhabi, UAE. This brings you an immense opportunity to be a part of scientific acceleration to world class personalities, young scholars, scientific delegates and young scientists to join in this forum to utilize the expertise and novelties that brings a new era for innovations in the field of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering which brings well versed scrutinizers at one place. It provides a platform to have open discussions, knowledge sharing and interactive sessions with field experts at GSCCE-2018.

               Crystallization is the solidification of atoms or molecules into a highly structured form called a crystal. Usually, this refers to the slow precipitation of crystals from a solution of a substance. However, crystals can form from a pure melt or directly from deposition from the gas phase. It can also refer to the solid-liquid separation and purification technique in which mass transfer occurs from the liquid solution to a pure solid crystalline phase.

                Although crystallization may occur during precipitation, the two terms are not interchangeable. Precipitation simply refers to formation of an insoluble (solid) from a chemical reaction. A precipitate may be amorphous or crystalline. Two events must occur for crystallization to occur. First, atoms or molecules cluster together on the microscopic scale in a process called nucleation. If the clusters become stable and sufficiently large, crystal growth may occur. Atoms and compounds can generally form more than one crystal structure (polymorphism). The arrangement of particles is determined during the nucleation stage of crystallization. This may be influenced by multiple factors, including temperature, concentration of the particles, pressure, and the purity of the material. In a solution in the crystal growth phase, equilibrium is established in which solute particles dissolve back into the solution and precipitate as a solid.

                 If the solution is supersaturated, this drives crystallization because the solvent cannot support continued dissolving. Sometimes having a supersaturated solution is insufficient to induce crystallization. It may be necessary to provide a seed crystal or a rough surface to start nucleation and growth.

The Scientific Federation delighted to welcome you to Global Summit on Chemistry & Chemical Engineering which will be held on February 26-27 at Abu Dhabi, UAE. This brings you an immense opportunity to be a part of scientific acceleration to world class personalities, young scholars, scientific delegates and young scientists to join in this forum to utilize the expertise and novelties that brings a new era for innovations in the field of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering which brings well versed scrutinizers at one place. It provides a platform to have open discussions, knowledge sharing and interactive sessions with field experts at GSCCE-2018.
This session focuses on the topic of Biochemical engineering, which says that it is the branch of chemical engineering which deals with the designing and manufacturing of the different unit operations involving biological material or living organism. It involves the application of chemical engineering methods and approaches to industrial operations which entirely based on the biological elements. Main application of biochemical engineering are in petrochemical industry, food processing, pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology, and water treatment industries. 
In the past few years, the process of large-scale bio-manufacturing has become more practical owing to advancements in technology and the easy availability of machines large enough to produce significantly high volumes of biologics due to progress in expression systems, cell and organ generation, and batch cultures. These advancements have boosted the requirement for equipment as demand for small volume and multiproduct capabilities have enabled facilities to adjust unit operations based on demand without incurring wastages and additional expenses.
Biochemical Engineering is an essential area in modern biotechnology. It includes Bioreactor and fermented design aspects, Industrial biotechnology, Photo bioreactor, electrochemical energy conversion, Biological hydrogen production (Algae), Bio-fuel from algae, Bioreactor landfill, and Moss bioreactor. The global market for bio-products is $466.6 billion in 2016 and it may reach $714.6 billion by 2021 from a compound annual growth rate (cagr) of 8.9%, from 2016 to 2021.
