About this title

Synopsis

Bioreaction Engineering Reactions Involving Microorganisms and Cells Volume 1 Fundamentals, Thermodynamics, Formal kinetics, Idealized reactor types and Operation modes Karl Schügerl, Professor of Technical Chemistry, Institut für Technische Chemie, Universität Hannover, West Germany This book is designed to provide a basic introduction to the principles of bioreactors, their operating parameters, and their dynamic behaviour under different conditions. The following topics are covered: Introduction Principles Modus operandi of bioreactors Idealized types Formal kinetics of cell growth and product formation in idealized reactors Operation modes in stirred reactors The book will be valuable to both process and control engineers in the fermentation industry and to researchers and lecturers in biotechnology departments of universities.

From the Publisher

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.
