Vision

To achieve the goals of our department, it is urgently to create a strong generation of researches who develop the recent and more advanced tools in biotechnology to be used for remediating the negative impacts of pollution that affect the environments by applying different strategies as the following: Using the strategy of bioremediation and phytoremediation to clean up environments polluted with phenol, pesticides, heavy metals and spots of petroleum oil spills. Using the nanotechnology and biotechnology tools together to accelerate the removal of these pollutants from environments. Abatement the pollution of environment due to the heavy application of fertilizers by establishing biotechnology of symbiotic and non symbiotic nitrogen-fixing microorganisms (Bio-fertilizers) with legumes and cereals on respectively. Develop and produce bio-detectors that can be used to detect the pollution in the early stages to prevent the large scale pollution. Use the common agriculture wastes as rice straw to produce Mushroom. Generation of bio-fuel through algal or microbial consortium growth on agricultural wastes. Bioconversion of environmental wastes into beneficial products as proteins, amino acids and pharmaceutical products. All the staffs are working together as big team work to achieve the goals of the department.

Mission

The mission of our Department is to keep and protect the environments from pollution that can be happened due to the excessive use of synthetic chemicals from both agricultural and industrial activities. This can be achieved by applying different safety applicable methods to prevent the pollution before and after occurrence.
