New breakthroughs in China's bio-fermentation industry, 5 key points for future development
Since the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan", the scale of my country's bio-fermentation industry has continued to expand, the adjustment of industrial structure has achieved remarkable results, the merger and reorganization of enterprises and the continuous improvement of technological level, and the sustainable characteristics of high efficiency, green and low carbon have gradually emerged, and have become my country An important part of strategic emerging industries.

However, under the complicated domestic economic situation, my country's bio-fermentation industry still faces structural surplus of production capacity, rising costs of raw materials, manpower, and environmental protection, and a large gap between core technology and foreign countries and other major issues affecting industrial development.

Seeking new breakthroughs in the biological fermentation industry

"Take bulk fermented products as an example. Cost and profit are a gradual line. Costs continue to rise and profits continue to decrease, and they will become a line in the future. What should be done? The industrial chain must be extended to produce high value-added products." China Bio-Fermentation Shi Weichen, chairman of the industry association, pointed out the key to the transformation of my country's bio-fermentation industry.

The bio-fermentation industry accounts for more than 80% of the bio-manufacturing industry. Like biomedicine and bio-agriculture, bio-manufacturing is also a key area of ​​the bio-industry. At the same time, bio-fermented products have widely penetrated into textile, paper and other industries.

Compared with key industries such as biomedicine and bio-agriculture, the fermentation industry is much lower-key, although the development of the industry is obvious: in 2011, the output of my country's bio-fermentation industry reached 20.55 million tons, with an output value of 250 billion yuan. In 2005, the two figures were 8 million tons and 40 billion yuan respectively. The product categories have also developed from more than 50 kinds of three categories before to more than 300 kinds of seven categories. At the same time, Chairman Shi Weichen also shared his thoughts on the development of the industry objectively and pragmatically: extending the industrial chain and producing high value-added products require the bio-fermentation industry to achieve breakthroughs in applied research, domestic demand, and new strain screening.

Five development priorities of the biological fermentation industry

First, it is necessary to enhance the ability of independent innovation and promote the transformation of traditional manufacturing technology with high technology. Research and develop new products, new technologies, new equipment, improve product special performance, produce high value-added products through biotransformation, biocatalysis and other methods, and focus on the development of bacterial breeding, fermentation technology, separation, extraction and purification of key technologies and equipment .

Second, we must promote industrial transfer and corporate reorganization. Guide the industry based on its resource advantages and promote the integrated and interactive development of the primary, secondary and tertiary industries through the expansion of bio-fermentation raw material bases, the extension of the industrial chain, and the extension of the value chain, and improve the industry’s ability to resist risks.

Third, we must also promote the implementation of the product application chain system linkage project, strengthen the in-depth development of product application fields; promote cleaner production, and strengthen industrial environmental protection governance. Key research contents include: the development and efficient utilization of new fermentation resources, the comprehensive utilization of high-value fermentation waste, the recycling of fermentation wastewater, the comprehensive application of clean production technologies and energy-saving emission reduction technologies in the green biological manufacturing of the fermentation industry.

Fourth, it is also necessary to strengthen the construction of standards and intellectual property systems. And by uniting financial capital and financial service companies to jointly build a distinctive financial service platform for China's fermentation industry; build an IoT service platform for biological fermentation products; strengthen talent exchange and training; strengthen publicity and guidance to increase social awareness.

Finally, we must encourage bio-fermentation companies with comparative advantages to invest overseas, cooperate in the development and utilization of resources, carry out processing trade, and lose no time in expanding the fields, channels and methods of economic and technical cooperation, and participate in international economic cooperation on a larger scale and at a higher level. And competition.

New opportunities in the biological fermentation industry-the Chinese dream of the biological fermentation industry

The "2016 4th Shanghai International Biological Fermentation Products and Technology Equipment Exhibition" hosted by China Bio-Fermentation Industry Association and undertaken by Shanghai Xinshi Exhibition Service Co., Ltd. was held in Shanghai Everbright Convention and Exhibition Center on September 7-9, 2016. Perfect The exhibition will include amino acids and organic acids, starch and starch sugars, yeast and derivatives, enzyme preparations, fermentation equipment, fluid equipment, environmental protection equipment, etc., will be from more than 20 countries and regions to participate, 18,000 square meters of display area, 20,000 professional visitors .

The same period will also be held: 2016 Food Nutrition and Health Summit Forum, 2016 Biological Fermentation Industry Development Summit Forum, 2016 Starch Sugar Application and Market Development Forum, 2016 Fourth Fermentation Energy Saving and Environmental Protection Forum, 2016 International Fermentation Medium Application and Development Technology Forum, More than 20 industry focus forums, including the 2016 Feed Biological Fermentation Technology and Product R&D Seminar, 2016 Biological Pesticide and Microbial Fertilizer Technology Development Seminar, 2016 Biological Fermentation Research Institute Innovation and Development Summit Forum, etc., to understand the technological innovation and technology innovation of the entire biological fermentation industry chain Product development and application trends, and jointly discuss the urgent problems of biological fermentation.
