Biotechnology Engineering: A Practical Approach on Bioprocess Development from Lab to Industrial Scale comprehensively provides consolidated content related to biotechnology engineering that supports R&D to manufacture commercial products on an industrial scale to meet the market's requirements. The book's structured chapters, practical approach, and real-world case studies effectively fulfil knowledge and information needs in the bioprocessing and biotechnology field. The chapters cover a broad diversity of topics ranging from the basics of bioprocessing, scalable solutions, bioprocess optimization, collaboration opportunities with experts, and crucial information on regulatory compliance. As such the book bridges the gap between theory and real-world applications in the bioprocessing field. Biotechnology Engineering: A Practical Approach on Bioprocess Development from Lab to Industrial Scale serves as a desktop reference for academics, scientist, engineers and professionals working on bioprocess development, discussing bioprocess development with calculations and case studies, and highlighting modern bioreactors and software tools adopted in the bioprocess industry.
