Reader Reviews
This is a comprehensive textbook on biochemical engineering suitable for students with only elementary knowledge of mathematics and engineering. It covers all the main aspects of the field but with minimal prerequisite knowledge of differential calculus and statistics. In the first part are given concepts of mass and energy balances, thermodynamics, hydrodynamics, heat and mass transfer, and unit operations. It is followed with reaction principles, kinetics of biological processes, heterogeneous reactions, and reactor engineering principles. Each topic includes practical examples and numerical solutions to problems. Students with biological background will find this book as the most appropriate introduction to biotechnology.
