Biological Reaction Engineering: Principles, Applications and Modelling with PC Simulation

This book is the admirable result of ten years' experience in organizing and teaching courses in biological reaction engineering. It gives engineers and scientists the information they need to analyze the behavior of complex biological reactors using mathematical equations and a dynamic simulation computer language.

Part I treats the fundamentals of modelling (mass balance equations, involving reaction kinetics and mass-transfer rates), making them readily understandable to those new in the field.
Part II gives 45 example problems, complete with models and programs.

This book is the first of its kind to include a diskette with a commercial simulation language. The diskette can be run on any DOS personal computer. Users will appreciate how the simulation runs can be interrupted for interactive parameter changes and instructive plotting.
