"Providing comprehensive coverage of the engineering principles behind processes used in the biochemical industry, this is a must-have book for students starting out in bioprocess engineering. This welcome new edition covers bioprocess engineering for the reader with a limited engineering background. It explains process analysis from an engineering point of view, using worked examples and problems that relate to biological systems. Application of engineering concepts is illustrated in areas of modern biotechnology, such as recombinant protein production, bioremediation, biofuels, drug development, and tissue engineering, as well as microbial fermentation. The main subdisciplines within the engineering curriculum are all covered : material and energy balances, transport processes, reactions and reactor engineering. With new and expanded material, Doran's textbook remains the book of choice for students seeking to move into bioprocess engineering. New to this edition : all chapters thoroughly revised for current developments, with more than 200 pages of new materials including significant new content in : metabolic engineering, sustainable bioprocessing, membrane filtration, turbulence and impeller design, downstream processing, and oxygen transfer systems ; more than 150 new problems and dozens of new worked examples ; and more than 100 new illustrations."--taken from back cover.
