Answer 2

Explanation:

Difference between bioprocessing and chemical processing is as follows.

Bioprocessing

• When raw material converts into final product with the help of microbes then this process is known as bioprocessing.
• It is a natural process.
• It is less cost effective.
• The product formed is non-toxic in nature.
• For example, fermentation of beer is a bioprocess that uses yeast.

Chemical processing

• When a raw material converts into product with the help of chemical substances or synthetic procedures, then it is known as chemical processing.
• It is a chemical process.
• It is more cost effective.
• The product formed can be toxic in nature.
• For example, rusting of iron.
