Shuichi Yamamoto Yamaguchi University Biomedical Engineering Center
DirectorYamaguchi University Biomedical Engineering CenterJapanHe received a BS degree in 1976, a MS in 1978 and a Ph. D in 1981 in the department of Food Science and technology at Kyoto University. He has been at Yamaguchi University since 1981 (Assistant Professor 1981-1988, Associate Professor 1989-1997, Professor 1998-present).
He teaches basic chemical engineering, biochemical engineering, separation engineering, transport phenomena, computer calculations for chemical engineering and process design.
His research interests are in the field of biochemical engineering, food engineering and mass transfer.
He received a 2004 research excellence award from the Society of Chemical Engineers Japan on “Engineering analysis of chromatography of proteins” and a 2005 research excellence award from Japan Society for Food Engineering on “Drying of liquid foods and inactivation of enzymes during drying”.
The following paper has been recognized in the “Top-75 most cited articles” as published in the IChemE journals 2006 – 2009. Shuichi Yamamoto and Ayako Kita, Rational design calculation method for stepwise elution chromatography of proteins, Trans.IChemE.Part C., Food and Bioproducts Processsing, Vol.84, C1, 72-77,2006
He has published more than 100 scientific papers. Among them, his monograph published in 1988 by Marcel Dekker “Ion-Exchange Chromatography of Proteins” is well-known. His chromatography model better known as “Yamamoto Model” and “Yamamoto number” has been employed by various biotech companies as well as by academic researchers. It is partly explained in Perry’s Chemical Engineering Handbook (pp.16-44, 16-45). A text book “Bioseparations Science and Engineering” by R.G.Harris et al. (Oxford press, 2003) describes in detail how to use his model with a Yamamoto number. His diffusion-based drying model is also called “Yamamoto model” as well, and has been used by many researchers.
He is a sub project leader of the National research project (Manufacturing Technology Association of Biologics).
He has also published several text books (chapters) for drying, mass transfer and adsorptions. He has been organizing a course “Basic Chemical Engineering“, for those who are working at chemical industries.
Currently he is Vice President of Asian Pacific Confederation of Chemical Engineers (APCChE) and a board member of World Chemical Engineering Council (WCEC) as a representative of the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan (SCEJ).
He also serves as an editorial board member for the following journals; Separation Science and Technology, Preparative Biochemistry and Biotechnology, BioProcess International, Japan Journal of Food Engineering (Chief Editor).
For his university, he serves as the vice director of the university library and the director of Biomedical Engineering Center (YUBEC).

Venue & Accommodation
Songdo, South Korea
Songdo, also previously knowns as the Songdo International Business District was built from scratch, on reclaimed land from the Yellow Sea. The 1,500-acre development sits an hour outside of Seoul and is officially part of the city of Incheon, whose proximity to the international airport and the sea makes it both a transportation hub and the gateway to Korea.
It’s the heart of the greater Songdo city, and from its conception in 2001, the IBD was envisioned as a sustainable, low-carbon, and high-tech utopia. For Koreans, the city would have all the perks of Seoul—and more—but without the capital city’s air pollution, crowded sidewalks, and choking automotive traffic. And for foreign corporations looking for access to Asian economies, Songdo would be a glitzy business capital to rival Hong Kong and Shanghai.
