Najafpour - Biochemical Engineering

Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology, Third Edition outlines the principles of biochemical processes, explaining their use in the manufacturing of every day products. The book's unique offering lies in it inclusion of many solved problems, case studies, examples, and demonstrations of detailed experiments that include simple design equations and required calculations. All chapters are fully revised, updated, and include the latest research results in the field of biochemical engineering and biotechnology. The new edition emphasizes practical aspects, microorganisms, upgrades of new types of membrane bioreactors, and contains more case studies and solved problems.

This book remains an indispensable reference for researchers in bioprocess engineering, chemicals, the physical/biological treatment of industrial wastewater, enzyme technology, fermentation processes, nano-particles' synthesis for antibiotic loading, medicine, and drug delivery.
