| Course description |
|
【Purpose】The students learn the cutting edge in the research field of plant biodegradation mechanisms in order to understand the conversion and protection technology of woody biomass. 【Summary】The lecture introduces the latest information of mechanisms of plant degradation by fungi and termites. The cutting edge technology in industrial application of plant biodegradation is also introduced in this lecture. |
| Expected Learning |
|
Through the lecture, students are expected to acquire the deep knowledge how to control the biodegradation of woody biomass. Corresponding criteria in the Diploma policy: See the curriculum maps. https://www.tuat.ac.jp/campuslife_career/campuslife/policy/ |
