Bioprocess Engineering

Bioprocess Engineering: Kinetics, Sustainability, and Reactor Design, Third Edition, is a systematic and comprehensive textbook on bioprocess kinetics, molecular transformation, bioprocess systems, sustainability and reaction engineering. The book reviews the relevant fundamentals of chemical kinetics, batch and continuous reactors, biochemistry, microbiology, molecular biology, reaction engineering and bioprocess systems engineering, introducing key principles that enable bioprocess engineers to engage in the analysis, optimization, selection of cultivation methods, design and consistent control over molecular biological and chemical transformations. The quantitative treatment of bioprocesses is the central theme in this text, however more advanced techniques and applications are also covered.

• Includes biological molecules and chemical reaction basics, cell biology and genetic engineering
• Describes kinetics and catalysis at molecular and cellular levels, along with the principles of fermentation
• Covers advanced topics and treatise in interactive enzyme and molecular regulations, also covering solid catalysis
• Explores bioprocess kinetics, mass transfer effects, reactor analysis, control and design
