The BIO204 – Principles of Biochemical Engineering book introduces students to the fundamental engineering concepts applied to biological systems and processes. It provides a comprehensive understanding of bioprocessing, fermentation technology, mass and heat transfer, enzyme kinetics, and bioreactor design—critical to the development of pharmaceuticals, food, and biofuels industries.
BIO204 textbook bridges the gap between biology and engineering by detailing how biological organisms and molecules are utilized in large-scale production. Key topics include scale-up of fermentation processes, bioprocess control systems, fluid dynamics, material balances, and the design and operation of bio-reactors. BIO204 book also emphasizes environmental considerations and sustainable bioprocessing approaches.
Filled with diagrams, real-life industry examples, step-by-step problem-solving, and review questions, this resource supports both conceptual understanding and application of biochemical engineering principles.
