粮食发酵与食品生物制造国家工程研究中心（原“粮食发酵工艺与技术国家工程实验室”）是2011年国家发展改革委批复建设的我国粮食发酵领域第一个国家工程实验室，2014年以优秀成绩通过验收，2021年经优化整合评价顺利纳入国家工程研究中心新序列管理。

研究中心以食品与生物产业发展需要为出发点，以提高企业自主创新能力和核心竞争力为宗旨，围绕国家重大战略任务和重点工程，开展产业核心技术攻关、关键工艺研究、重要装备研制和重大新产品开发，突破产业结构调整和发展中的关键技术装备制约。主要研究方向包括：1）粮食发酵与酶工程技术；2）合成生物学与食品原料创制；3）微生物组学与食品绿色制造；4）食品智能制造与质量安全控制。

工程中心以“面向国家需求，创新粮食发酵，引领产业发展”为宗旨，坚持“目标导向、协同攻关、绩效管理、科学评价、开放共享”的建设思想，实行理事会领导下的中心主任负责制。力争用5-10年时间，建设成为我国粮食发酵与食品生物制造领域国家重大工程技术的策源地、核心技术和重大装备的孵化器、食品科技与创新人才培养的新高地以及高水平国际创新与合作交流的示范地，成为新时期国家战略科技力量。

National Engineering Research Center of Cereal Fermentation and Food Biomanufacturing (Former National Engineering Laboratory for Cereal Fermentation Technology) is the first national engineering laboratory in the field of cereal fermentation in China approved by the National Development and Reform Commission in 2011. In 2014, it passed the inspection with excellent results. In 2021, it was included into the new sequence management of National Engineering Research Center after the optimized integrated evaluation.

The mission of National Engineering Research Center of Cereal Fermentation and Food Biomanufacturing is to improve the independent innovation capability and break through the constraints of key technology and equipment in the Chinese cereal fermentation and food biomanufacturing industry through research and major equipment development of core technology. Four major research areas are focused: 1) cereal fermentation and enzyme engineering technology; 2) Synthetic biology and food ingredient creation; 3) Microbiomics and green food manufacturing; 4) Intelligent food manufacturing and quality and safety control.

The National Engineering Research Center adheres to the tenet of "facing national demand, innovating grain fermentation and leading industrial development", adheres to the construction idea of "goal-oriented, collaborative tackling key problems, performance management, scientific evaluation and open sharing", and implements the director responsibility system under the leadership of the Council. In 5 to 10 years, we will push the National Engineering Research Center to be the source of major national engineering technology, the incubator of core technology and major equipment, the new platform of innovation personnel training, and the demonstration base of high-level international innovation and cooperation.
