Industrial biotechnology uses microorganisms and biological processes to produce useful products and materials in a more sustainable way compared to traditional chemical processes. It involves using fermentation and other biological methods to generate chemicals, fuels, foods, and other products from renewable resources. Industrial biotechnology is more efficient and environmentally friendly than petrochemical processes as it uses renewable resources and produces less waste. Some key applications include producing antibiotics, enzymes, organic acids, biofuels, and treating waste and pollution.

Microbial biotechnology is the use of microorganisms to obtain an economically valuable product or activity at a commercial or large scale.
Like any other man-made technology, microbial biotechnology has both positive and negative effects on the environment.
Biotechnology may carry more risk than other scientific fields: microbes are tiny and difficult to detect, but the dangers are potentially vast.
The use of biotechnical methods—including genetically-engineered microorganisms—is indispensable for the manufacture of many products essential to mankind.
For better or for worse, it is the mankind's task to tackle the problems that are associated with the use of this technology, and which to a high degree are located in the field of unwanted environmental impacts.
The use of biotechnology should be restricted to enhancing the quality of life for plants, animals and human beings only. Anything beyond that is unnatural and highly disastrous to us.

Plant Design for bioplastic production from Microalgae in Pakistan.pdfMianHusnainIqbal2
Microalgae is an organism that belongs to the unicellular eukaryotic protists, prokaryotic
cyanobacteria, and blue-green algae. It have withdrawn a great attention of industrialists due to
its remarkable properties. According to the recent searches microalgae have more than 25.000
forms of species among which 15 has major use as a resource of many industrial products. Many
environmental friendly green plant processes have been develope in order to minimize the waste
and for energy saving such as Phytoremediation. Which is an excellent recovery system for
many resources. Via this process the recovery of microalgae species from aquaculture wastes is
done and the microalgae is then used as source of industrial biopolymers having excellent
characteristics.
Biotechnology and its applications
Introduction:
Biotechnology is the broad area of biology, involving living systems and organisms to develop or make products, or "any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use“.
Depending on the tools and applications, it often overlaps with the (related) fields of molecular biology, bio-engineering, biomedical engineering, biomanufacturing, molecular engineering, etc.
The wide concept of "biotech" or "biotechnology" encompasses a wide range of procedures for modifying living organisms according to human purposes, going back to domestication of animals, cultivation of the plants, and "improvements" to these through breeding programs that employ artificial selection and hybridization. Modern usage also includes genetic engineering as well as cell and tissue culture technologies.
Its Applications:
Biotechnology has applications in four major industrial areas,
Food Industry
Health and Medicine
Agriculture
Industrial And Environmental

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. INDUSTRIAL BIOTECHNOLGY
Depending on the tools and applications, biotechnolgy often overlaps with the fields of
molecular biology, bio-engineering, biomedical engineering, biomanufacturing, molecular
engineering, etc. Since from many years, humankind has used biotechnology in field of
agriculture, food production, and medicine, and many other sectors. Biotechnology is the
branch of science(biology) where living systems and organisms are used to develop or make
commercial useful products, or "any methods that uses biological systems, living organisms,etc.
to make or modify products or processes for specific use for livelihood ". Among different types
of biotechnology used , Industrial Biotechnology is probably one of the biggest booms to have
occurred in our huge field. During last 20 to 30 years the field that is developed so fast is
genetic engineering. Genetic engineering ues rDNA technology to produce products related to
health and medical but that was in early days . In 1980 it was the first time the industrial
biotechnology was used. It tends to be efficient and commercially useful day by day. Before
industrial biotechnology , chemical industry was used to produced commercial products.
Industrial biotechnology uses renewable sources like wheat , corn, straw , etc for useful
products . Chemical industry uses nonrenewable resources like coal gas and petrol derived
from fossils energy.
Industrial biotechnology (known as white biotechnology - in Europe) is the set
of practices used for industrial purposes, including industrial fermentation. It includes use of
cell methods such as microorganisms, or components of cells like enzymes, to generate
industrially useful products such as chemicals, plastics, agricultural and pharmaceutical
products, energy carriers , food and feed, detergents, paper and pulp, textiles and biofuels.
Significant progress has been achieved in creating genetically modified organisms (GMOs) that
enhance the diversity of applications in many sectors and economical viability of industrial
biotechnology. Industrial biotechnology is actively advancing towards lowering greenhouse gas
emissions and moving away from a petrochemical-based economy by using renewable raw
materials to produce a variety of chemicals and fuels,. Use of industrial biotechnology makes
many industries to work more efficient and environmentally friendly, contributing to industrial
sustainability in various ways. This biotechnology changes pharmaceutical and agricultural
techniques that helps us to produce materials such as biopolymers and also bioplastics.
Industrial biotechnology can produce the same results(can exceed) as the petrochemical
industry(that uses fossil energy). Application of biochemistry, microbiology, genomics,
proteomics, bioinformatics, systems biology and process engineering in industrial
biotechnology makes rapid, specialized and competitive growth of the techniques that enable
high productivity, performance and stability. Industrial biotechnology has main role in four
major industrial areas that includes health care (medical), crop production and agriculture,
non-food (industrial) uses of crops and other products (e.g. biodegradable plastics, vegetable
oil, biofuels), and environmental uses. For example, applications of biotechnology by using of
microorganisms for the manufacture of organic products (examples include beer and milk
products). Another example is using naturally present bacteria in the field of mining industry
for bioleaching. Biotechnology is the main tool that is used today to produce biological
3. weapons and to recycle, treatment of waste(effluent treatment), clean up sites contaminated
by industrial activities (bioremediation).
Industrial biotechnology comprises of
Medium preparations
Inoculum preparation using industrial strain
Fermentation process ( science of fermentation is known as zymology )
Physico chemical separation processes for products purifications
Packaging
Effluent treatment ( organic waste treatment )
Industrial biotechnology is also known as white
biotechnology because it have got positive environmental aspects like reduces waste
generation , reduces energy consumption , remove use of solvents , elimination of dangerous
intermediate. The process of biotechnology works by transforming biomass (e.g. organic waste
, algae, agricultural(by) products into biofuels and bio based chemicals. In this way, industrial
biotechnology could save energy in the production processes and could lead to significant
reductions in the green house gas emissions , helping to fight global warming. It can also lead to
improved performance and sustainability for industry and higher value products.Main benefits
are low input of substrate,high rate of output,friendly to environment,renewable,increased
efficiency,etc. While this technology can improve the resilience of crops, they are more
expensive for farmers. The “biotech” seed will be resistant to weed killer and will overgrow and
can ruin the normal seed overgrowing beside them. Similarly, the diseases can become
resistant and unresponsive to antibiotics as they are overprescribed and misused. Plants
affected by biotechnology or engineering may have specific allergens than can affect food
sensitive people.
Its applications are production of biocontrol
agents, fermentation of food products, biobased fuel and energy, recovery of metal ,metabolite
production, etc.
Fig : Antibiotics and
Vitamins
4. Microorganisms produce a number of metabolites . Eg Antibiotics, enzymes, organic
acids ,vitamins etc.
Microorganisms enhance the nutrient available to the crops by fixing atmospheric
Nitrogen and solubilizing the soil phosphorous.e.g Rhizobium spp , azotobacter ,BGA etc.
Fig : Fermentation of food
products
For recovery of metals, microbes can be employed to recover valuable metals from low
grades ores. E.g leaching of copper as copper sulphates from ores.
Use of Microorganisms to control insect pests, pathogens,or weeds constitutes biological
control and the biological agents employed for this purpose are called bicontrol agents.
E.g bioinsecticides.
5. Bio based fuel and energy : ethanol is obtained from fermentation of grain, cellulose
enzyme technology allows conversion of crop residues to ethanol.
# Advantages of industrial biotechnology over chemical industry
1)high reaction rate
2)improved conversional efficiency
3)high product purity
4)lower consumption of energy
5) decrease in chemical waste
Thus, it is the set of practices of using the collection
of various useful scientific techniques and technologies for improvement of both the efficacy
and environmental footprint of the modern industrial production. Microbial technology
constitutes the core of industrial biotechnology(More similarity) . So, microbial technology refer
to the use of microbes to obtain a product or service of economic value( Fermentation).
Industrial biotechnology uses biological resources for industrial processes. White biotechnology
tends to consume less in resources than traditional processes used to produce industrial goods.
In many developing countries like Nepal , industrial biotechnology is growing day by day.
