His research interests are in fungal fermentation, bioproduct separations and bioavailability studies. He has worked specifically on bioconversion of feedstock materials to biopharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals (essential lipids), hydrolytic enzymes, and bioenergy components (fuel ethanol and biodiesel ethyl esters). Separation processes include supercritical fluid extraction, ultrafiltration and chromatography methods with focus on thermodynamic and computational transport modeling.Drapcho, Caye is the author of 'Biofuels Engineering Process Technology ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780071487498 and ISBN 0071487492.
