The benefits of bran residuals: Carl Rämgård on enzyme engineering in circular food systems
Enzymes exist in all living organisms and act as catalysts in chemical processes. There is a broad application of enzyme technology, and extensive research is being conducted in the area, not least in food technology. At KTH, researchers investigate the potential of using enzyme technology to make food products of agricultural waste, contributing to a more sustainable and circular food system.
