Preface

The 5 th International Conference on Chemical Engineering, Food and Biotechnology (ICCFB2021) Dear Authors, honored Readers, It is with my deep pleasure that I write this Foreword to the Manuscript Collection of the 5 th ICCFB - International Conference on Chemical Engineering, Food and Biotechnology held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in November 4-5, 2021. Unfortunately, since June 2021, the 4 th outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused social distancing regulations in the whole Vietnam; therefore, the conference committees decided to change the meeting to a virtual format. The 5 th ICCFB with the theme “Chemical, Food and Biological Process Development towards Sustainability and Digital Transformation” is expected that the emerging technologies and scientific advancements in all the fields will be disseminated during the Conference. It also intends to create a forum for strengthening partnership between academia and industry towards industrial applications. The papers contributed the most recent scientific knowledge known in the field of Animal and Plant Cell Technology, Protein Engineering, Bioenvironmental Engineering, Bioactive Compounds and Food Biotechnology, Catalyst and Reaction Engineering, Renewable Energy Technology, Environmental and Safety Engineering, Fundamental of Chemical, Engineering and Applied Chemistry, Industrial Chemical Engineering, Material Science and Technology, Process and Control Engineering. All the papers were carefully reviewed with a double-blind review process. In addition to the contributed papers, the keynote speeches were given to make the conference more productive and precious. I believe that this is also the driving force for further research and research in all these areas. We thank all distinguished guests, authors, participants for their contributions to make a successful conference and look forward to the 6 th ICCFB in 2023.
