Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Green bio-manufacturing will produce huge economic benefits for contributing to the development of the global bio-economy. The design of the biocatalytic system in bioprocess engineering is a critical initial step in green bio-manufacturing for the synthesis of chemical products, medical products, natural products, and flavor food. Feedstock, reaction medium, and biocatalysts are three main aspects that affect the reaction efficiency of the biocatalytic system. Therefore, its design needs to systematically the roles and interactions between these aspects. In order to synthesize high-value products, whole-cell catalysts, multi-enzyme catalysts, nano-biocatalysts, and the immobilization of biocatalysts have shown remarkable application value in the aqueous phase system, organic phase system, ionic liquid system, two-phase system, deep eutectic solvent system, and non-solvent system.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
