Describing most of the topics on white biotechnology admitted to the 7th EU Framework Program as well as new industrial production processes aiming towards reaching the Kyoto objectives, this comprehensive textbook covers the enabling sciences and technologies, the application domains, as well as the economic potential and societal impact.
From the contents:
* History of industrial biotechnology
* Use of renewable versus fossil resources
* Systems microbial biotechnology
* Metabolic engineering and modeling
* Fermentation technologies
* Directed evolution and production of of industrial enzymes
* Nanobiotechnology
* Downstreamprocessing
* Chemicals and biopharmaceuticals
* Food and feed
* Paper and pulp
* Fuels from biomass
* Enviromental, economic and societal aspects
This comprehensive text is primarily directed at readers with a general interest in Industrial Biotechnology. It is equally very suitable as an introductory handbook to students , scientists and academics as well as researchers and engineers now active in a wide range of industries, including the bulk, fine and petrochemical sector, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, the personal care sector, the food and feed industries, agriculture and biorefineries, the paper and pulp sector, energy and fuel production and many more. |
