Summary:

This book provides an up-to-date, comprehensive overview of the field of biochemical engineering. It is edited by the distinguished co-author of the classic textbook Biochemical Engineering, which first established this area of interdisciplinary research and pioneered its extensive applications in fields such as microbiology, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, engineering, and food processing. The contributors to this volume are leading researchers from around the world, writing on subjects that include physiology, kinetics, DNA technology, metabolites, measurement and control, and environmental protection. While some of the chapters reflect on past achievements in biochemical engineering, most report on contemporary research and plans for future progress.
