Services and Capabilities

BBRC offers a wide spectrum services to industries and organizations within country. Apart from routine chemical and microbiological analysis of water, wastewater, food and chemical, other services cover a range including:

- Surveys and assessment of pollution.
- Feasibility and pilot plant studies.
- Design of water and wastewater treatment plants.
- Design of fermentation processes.
- Evaluation and upgrading of existing plants.

In order to design a project, importance is given to the selection of the most economic and cost effective methods of treatment, which is best known as “appropriate technology”. Particular emphasis is laid on site investigation, the study of manufacturing process collection and evaluation of the data needed for designing a successful project.

Above all, BBRC is honored to announce that its main task is to develop technology and to train specialists to manage, or to take the task of designing, developing, and trouble shooting of local Industries.

BBRC Strain Collection
BBRC strain collection is a merge of local collection located at BBRC , Sharif university of Technology ready to supply all the relevant services both to the public and private sectors.

1. Fully Characterized Strains

1.2. Molds and Yeasts

1.3 Halophilic strains

2.Screened and Partially Characterized Strains

Facilities

Through its location, the centre benefits from extensive facilities of the university while retaining on industrially oriented viewpoint.

The centers facilities include various more or less quipped laboratories such as: Fermentation, bioreactor, microbiology, enzyme and food technology, quality control, Environmental engineering, nonotechnology, tissue and genetic engineering, pilot plants for training, research and feasibility. A workshop is among other useful assets of the center.

The Biochemical and Bioenvironmental Research Center offers services on a consultation basis to governmental and non-governmental sectors. Apart from routine analysis of water and wastewater, the engineering division also offers advices on problems of pollution control and water and wastewater treatments. Feasibility studies and the preparation of reports and designs related to engineering consultancy, form a major part of the work within the framework of the bioenvironmental engineering section.

Short courses in pollution control and bioengineering are also offered to the private sector on demand, including training courses for technicians and plant operators.

Along with the problems of pollution in air and water, created by both human and industrial waste, the population growth demands an increased improvement in current techniques of food production, conversion and storage. Relevant research on this area of concern is also carried out at the center and related subjects in food processing technology, fermentation and biochemical engineering are investigated within the field of industrial microbiology.
