Bioprocess Engineering Principles By Pauline M. Doran (Swinburne University of Technology, Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology, School of Science, Department of Chemistry and Biotechnology, Victoria, Australia)

Summary

Covers bioprocess engineering principles for the reader with a limited engineering background. This title explains process analysis from an engineering point of view, using worked examples and problems that relate to biological systems.

Bioprocess Engineering Principles Summary

Bioprocess Engineering Principles by Pauline M. Doran (Swinburne University of Technology, Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology, School of Science, Department of Chemistry and Biotechnology, Victoria, Australia)

This welcome new edition discusses bioprocess engineering from the perspective of biology students. It includes a great deal of new material and has been extensively revised and expanded. These updates strengthen the book and maintain its position as the book of choice for senior undergraduates and graduates seeking to move from biochemistry/microbiology/molecular biology to bioprocess engineering.

Bioprocess Engineering Principles Reviews

Doran (Swinburne U. of Technology, Australia) revises her 1995 graduate and undergraduate textbook for students of molecular biology, biotechnology, and related disciples who have little or no engineering background but want to become familiar with the processes by which biological discoveries are transformed into commercial products. Her emphasis is on the underlying scientific and engineering principles rather than on specific biotechnology applications, she says, so most of the material in the first edition remains relevant. There have been some significant developments, however, and she includes new sections on sustainable bioprocessing and metabolic engineering. Overall, she covers introductory matters, material and energy balances, physical processes, and reactions and reactors. --Reference and Research Book News, October 2012
