Learning Outcomes
Review and application of basic knowledge in chemical technology (previously taught), where unit operations and chemical processes are included, particularly connected to biotechnological procedures leading to industrial products.
Course Content (Syllabus)
Applications of transport phenomena (fluid flow and mixing, heat transfer, mass transfer) to bioprocesses. Mass and energy balances. Kinetics in biological systems (autocatalytic, enzymic, heterogeneous reactions, cells growth, enzymes deactivation, energy metabolism). Operation and types of bioreactors (batch, plug flow and fully mixed flow). Downstream processing. Separations – isolation – purification of biotechnologically prepared products. Combined bioseparation processes. Flowsheets.
