Extensive application of bioprocesses has generated an expansion in biotechnological knowledge, generated by the application of biochemical engineering to biotechnology. Microorganisms produce alcohols and acetone that are used in industrial processes. The knowledge related to industrial microbiology has been revolutionized by the ability of genetically engineered cells to make many new products. Genetic engineering and gene mounting has been developed to enhance industrial fermentation. Ultimately, these bioprocesses have become a new way of developing commercial products.Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology demonstrates the application of biological sciences in engineering with theoretical and practical aspects to enhance understanding of knowledge in this field. The book adopts a practical approach, showing related case studies with original research data. It is an ideal text book for college and university courses, which guides students through the lectures in a clear and well-illustrated manner.
Ghasem Najafpour is distinguished professor in Chemical Engineering and the Chairman of Biotechnology Research Center, Babol Noshirvani University of Technology, Iran. He is an educated scholar from University of Arkansas, USA with strong background in biological processes. He is deeply involved in research and teaching in biochemical engineering subjects since 1980 and has conducted many practical research projects in the fields of biofuel and biochemical engineering. He has served as academic member of University of Mazandran, Visiting Professor at University of Waterloo, Canada and University of Arkansas, USA, University Science Malaysia (USM, Penang) and Babol Noshirvani University of Technology. He also spent his sabbatical leave at University of Arkansas, USA (1992-1993). He has expanded his scientific research activities on single cell protein (SCP), hydrogen as clean fuel, microbial fuel cells, renewable energy and synthetic fuels. Since 2005, he was qualified and appointed as Professor in the Faculty of Chemical Engineering at Babol Noshirvani University of Technology, Iran.
