Clarke, Kim Gail,
Bioprocess engineering : an introductory engineering and life science approach / Kim Gail Clarke. - 1 online resource : illustrations
Includes bibliographical references and index.
The synergistic effect of the contributions of engineering and life sciences is recognised as key to the translation of new bioproducts from the laboratory bench to commercial bioprocess. Fundamental to the successful realization of the bioprocess is a need for process engineers and life scientists competent in evaluating biological systems from a cross-disciplinary viewpoint. This book aims to generate core competencies through an understanding of the complementary biotechnology disciplines and their interdependence. Topics include: microbiology, biochemistry and molecular biology that underpin biocatalyst potential for product accumulation; kinetic and mass transfer principles that quantify optimum process performance and scale up; bioprocesses using bacterial, fungal and enzymic biocatalysts, batch, fed-batch and continuous strategies and free and immobilised configurations are disccussed. --
