Klappentext
Apply chemical engineering principles to biological processes with confidence
Biochemical Engineering: A Textbook for Engineers, Chemists and Biologists, now in its Third Edition, delivers a structured approach to applying chemical engineering principles to biological systems. Written by a team of experienced biochemical engineers from leading Japanese universities, this textbook requires no prior chemical engineering knowledge while building the analytical skills needed to solve real bioprocess problems.
The Third Edition adds a new chapter on monoclonal antibodies and therapeutic proteins, covering upstream processing, downstream purification, and quality control. The three-part structure progresses from fundamental concepts through process aspects like heat transfer, mass transfer, and bioreactors, to practical applications including fermentor engineering and medical device production. More than one hundred exercises support self-study.
The book includes:
- Clear explanations connecting fundamental engineering principles to therapeutic protein production, bridging classical biochemical engineering with modern industrial biotechnology
- Comprehensive coverage of bioseparation methods, bioreactor design, bioprocess control, and biorecognition assays essential for bioprocess development
- Over one hundred exercises with detailed questions and answers enabling students to build strong fundamentals through structured self-study
- New coverage of monoclonal antibody production including upstream processing, downstream purification, quality control methods, and future industry perspectives
- Logical three-part organization progressing from basic concepts through process aspects to practical applications without requiring prior engineering background
Undergraduate students in biotechnology, chemical engineering, and biology will find this textbook builds essential bioprocess engineering competencies systematically. Lecturers at universities and applied sciences institutions gain a proven resource that connects theory to industrial practice across food, pharmaceutical, and water treatment applications.
Biografie (Shigeo Katoh)
Prof. Shigeo Katoh is Head of the Bioengineering Laboratory at Kobe University, Japan. He holds PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Kyoto, Japan. Prof. Katoh is an enthusiastic lecturer in Biochemical Engineering, Bioseparation Engineering and Immunotechnology. He is an outstanding expert in biochemical engineering and has published numerous papers in this field.Biografie (Fumitake Yoshida)
Prof. em. Fumitake Yoshida was one of the world's most respected chemical engineers. Most recently he was professor emeritus of chemical engineering at Kyoto University and well beyond his retirement he continued to be a visiting lecturer at universities around the world. He conducted research on various mass transfer operations, gas-liquid systems in particular, investigating their applications in bioengineering and medical technology. Yoshida received his BS and PhD degrees in engineering from Kyoto University. Among his many awards and citations was election to the National Academy of Engineering of the United States in 1979 for his leadership in chemical, biochemical, and biomedical engineering in Japan.
