CARRILLO, Marcela Piedad et al. The Role of Engineering in Biodiversity Sustainable Use at the Amazon Region. rev.ing. [online]. 2015, n.42, pp.67-70. ISSN 0121-4993.  https://doi.org/10.16924/riua.v0i42.826.

Colombian amazon has a wide biologic diversity, with silvester and cultured species which use potential and abundance identified them as an important bioactive compounds source. That represents a wide opportunity to innovate and develop processes and technologies in different engineering fields (chemical, mechanical and food engineering). This paper presents experiences when the problem of sustainable use of biodiversity is tackled from engineering in the Colombian amazonic region.

Keywords : Biodiversity; bioactive compounds; amazonian species; natural ingredients.
