Infos

Bioprocess Engineering of Reactions is a systematic and comprehensive resource that explores principles and analysis of reactions within the bioprocess and biotechnology industries. The book provides a step-by-step guide to understanding batch, continuous, and fed-batch reactor operations, reflecting the growth behaviour of cells through various phases, and introduces innovative pinch methods for optimizing batch reactors without relying on complex mathematical models, while also addressing the intricacies of enzymatic systems and the impact of phase separation on reaction dynamics. The book covers a wide array of topics, including biomolecular reaction basics, ideal flow reactors, batch fermentation, continuous culture, and the engineering of cells. It also emphasizes sustainability and stability in bioprocess operations, while discussing critical factors such as reactivity hazards and biohazards. With a focus on mass and heat transfer, reactor design, and real reactor deviations, it equips readers with the knowledge to navigate the complexities of bioprocess engineering. Bioprocess Engineering of Reactions is an invaluable resource for bioprocess engineers, researchers, and students in in biotechnology, chemical engineering, and molecular biology. By linking reactor operations to specific cell growth patterns and providing insights into optimization strategies, the book also empowers professionals to enhance productivity and ensure safety in their bioprocess endeavors.
