Synopsis
The second edition of this multi-volume, comprehensive treatise is planned for 12 volumes, of which v.4 is the first to make it into print. The 12 volumes are to be organized in three sections of four volumes each on: the fundamentals from biological, biochemical, molecular biological, and chemical engineering perspectives; products of industrial relevance; and special topics. The present volume reflects the impact of computer technology, especially in the areas of measurement and control. It describes monitoring of the biotechnological process, use of the resulting data by means of mathematical models, and computer-aided closed loop control for improvement of the productivity of biotechnological processes. While v.4 can be used independently, v.3 Bioprocessing (unseen), is a companion volume. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
