Methods for processing of biological materials into useful products
represent essential core manufacturing activities of the food,
chemical and pharmaceutical industries. On the one hand the
techniques involved include well established process engineering
methodologies such as mixing, heat transfer, size modification and
a variety of separatIon and fermentation procedures. In addition,
new bioprocessing practices arising from the exciting recent
advances in biotech nology, including innovative fermentation cell
culture and enzyme based operations, are rapidly extending the
frontiers of bioprocessing. These develop ments are resulting in
the introduction to the market place of an awesome range of novel
biological products having unique applications. Indeed, the United
States Office of Technology Assessment* has concluded that
'competitive advantage in areas related to biotechnology may depend
as much on developments in bioprocess engineering as on innovations
in genetics, immunology and other areas of basic science'. Advances
in analytical instrumentation, computerization and process
automation are playing an important role in process control and
optimization and in the maintenance of product quality and
consistency characteristics. Bioprocessing represents the
industrial practice of biotechnology and is multidisciplinary in
nature, integrating the biological, chemical and engineering
sciences. This book discusses the individual unit operations
involved and describes a wide variety of important industrial
bioprocesses. I am very grateful to Sanjay Thakur who assisted me
in the collection of material for this book.
