Applications of bioprocesses have created an environment of great interest.

Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology

Microorganisms are now utilised to produce fine chemicals, fuel and food. Industrial
microbiology has been revolutionised by the ability to genetically engineer cells to
make many new products.
Biochemical Engineering
This book demonstrates the application of biological sciences and covers both
theoretical and practical aspects. It is an advanced guide book that can also be
used as a text book, with detailed explanations, original research data, related
and Biotechnology
case-studies and solved practical problems. Chapters cover a wide range of topics
including:
• Industrial Microbiology
