Full Description
This book introduces the reader to basics in both engineering and life sciences required for designing an optimal bioprocess system. Bioprocess Engineering and Technology: Fundamentals integrates life science topics such as cell physiology, microbiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology with essential engineering principles, specifically targeting the needs of both engineers and life science experts. It covers engineering fundamentals relevant to bioprocess engineering, including reaction engineering, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, and the analytical techniques involved in bioprocess operations. To effectively understand bioprocesses, both life scientists and process engineers must approach biological systems with a cross-disciplinary perspective. Therefore, the book begins by exploring key topics like microbiology, biochemistry, cellular metabolism, bioenergetics, molecular biology, and cellular physiology - areas that form the foundation for understanding the role of biocatalysts in product accumulation. The subsequent chapters focus on engineering principles that govern biochemical reactions, fluid, heat, and mass transport phenomena, followed by an in-depth discussion on various analytical tools involved in bioprocess engineering.
This book is designed to provide a comprehensive foundation for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as researchers in bioprocess engineering, particularly for applications in industrial-scale processes.
