Bioseparation Processes

Though the field of biotechnology has expanded exponentially in the past decade, a body of comprehensive and affordable textbooks has failed to develop alongside, leaving an acknowledged paucity of suitable texts in the field, particularly for the undergraduate. This text aims to systematically promote and enforce an essential integration between bioseparation processes and biological/chemical and engineering sciences through a series of case studies focusing on separations and separation processes in the context of industrial practice. As an introductory level text, Biological Processes focuses on process- rather than laboratory-scale operations, supplementing key ideas with biologically-based examples and case studies to illustrate concepts and stimulate student discussion.Kieran, Patricia M. is the author of 'Bioseparation Processes' with ISBN 9780471236283 and ISBN 0471236284.
