Process integration has been one of the most active research fields
in Biochemical Engineering over the last decade and it will
continue to be so if bioprocessing is to become more rational,
efficient and productive. This volume outlines what has been
achieved in recent years. Written by experts who have made
important contributions to the European Science, Foundation Program
on Process Integration in Biochemical Engineering, the volume
focuses on the progress made and the major opportunities, and in
addition on the limitations and the challenges in bioprocess
integration that lie ahead. The concept of bioprocess integration
is treated at various levels, including integration at the
molecular, biological, bioreactor and plant levels, but also
accounting for the integration of separation and mass transfer
operations and biology, fluid dynamics and physiology, as well as
basic science and process technology.
This book covers the fundamentals of the rapidly growing field
of "biothermodynamics," showing how thermodynamics can best be
applied to applications and processes in biochemical engineering.
It describes the rigorous application of thermodynamics in
biochemical engineering to rationalize bioprocess development and
obviate a substantial fraction of this need for tedious
experimental work. As such, this book will appeal to a diverse
group of readers, ranging from students and professors in
biochemical engineering, to scientists and engineers, for whom it
will be a valuable reference.
