Description
The main objective of this course is to introduce the engineering students to the fundamental concepts of bioprocess engineering. Specifically, this course aims to provide the students with an understanding of the role that microorganisms and/or enzymes could play in a variety of bioprocesses and the industrial applications of such processes. Topics such as cell nutrients, microbial growth and kinetics, enzymatic reactions and kinetics, bioreactors (batch, fed batch, continuous flow), cell immobilization and immobilized cell bioreactors, solid state fermentation, bioreactor and fermentor scale-up/scale down, mixing, aeration, instrumentation, and genetic engineering will be covered.
Prerequisite(s) or Corequisite(s): CHE 210.3, or ME 215.3, or CE 225.3, or permission of the department.
