| The UK has years of experience in the application of biotechnology to industrial applications but, with the move to an economy that focuses increasingly on sustainable technologies and renewable resources, has been accelerating its efforts. There is also a need to play a significant part in European and global initiatives and ensure appropriate integration with these whilst recognizing that the national drivers may differ. Supporting existing technologies based upon the application of the biosciences is augmented by an integration of different emerging areas of biotechnology that seeks to develop biorefining beyond the immediate area of biofuels and also to develop novel sources of products derived from the biosciences. |
