The only series to focus specifically on biochemical engineering, this work provides an overall view of the current state of bioreaction engineering, the science of the reaction engineering of cells and microorganisms. It will prove invaluable to microbiologists, chemical technologists and process managers, stimulating new interest in this rapidly growing field. The wide range of topics covered include the modus operandi of bioreactors, basic types, reactor circuits, formal kinetics of cell growth and product formation, growth in idealized reactors, substrate-limited growth, operation modes in stirred reactors, discontinuous (batch) operation, continuous operation, dynamic behavior of open and closed loop reactors and more.
