What is the difference between Biochemical engineering, Chemical Engineering, Biotechnology, Biome..

Answer / guest

Biomedical Engineering concerns the understanding of the
mechanics of anatomy, and the development of mechanical
therapies, such as the pacemaker or artificial limbs.
Biochemistry concerns the fundamental understanding of how
cells work at a chemical level.
Biomedical Sciences is not a degree. It is a foundation
year for entry into the second year of neurology, anatomy,
physiology, or psychology etc.
Biotechnology is not a single subject. It is a collective
term for all the scientific and engineering disciplines
that are involved in the translation of new discoveries in
the life sciences to practical outcomes.
Chemical Engineering concerns the translation of
discoveries in Chemistry into commercial processes for
manufacture of new chemical entities.
Biochemical Engineering concerns the engineering of
discovery processes and the translation of discoveries in
Biochemistry and Medicine into commercial processes for new
biological entities such as medicines and therapeutics. It
encompasses the biology, engineering, mathematics and
business behind this translation.

Answer / m.narasimha murthy

Biochemical engineering is a branch of chemical engineering
or biological engineering that mainly deals with the design
and construction of unit processes that involve biological
organisms or molecules. Biochemical engineering is often
taught as a supplementary option to chemical engineering or
biological engineering due to the similarities in both the
background subject curriculum and problem-solving
techniques used by both professions. Its applications are
used in the food, feed, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and
water treatment industries.

while

Chemical engineering is the branch of engineering that
deals with the application of physical science (e.g.
chemistry and physics), with mathematics, to the process of
converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or
valuable forms. In addition to producing useful materials,
chemical engineering is also concerned with pioneering
valuable new materials and techniques, an important form of
research and development. A person employed in this field
is called a chemical engineer.

Chemical engineering largely involves the design and
maintenance of chemical processes for large-scale
manufacture. Chemical engineers in this branch are usually
employed under the title of process engineer
