COURSE DESCRIPTION
The course teaches he basic methodology for the design and cost evaluation of bioprocess involving biotransformations, separation and thermal unit operations.
The guiding thread of the course is a virtual R&D project on the design and cost evaluation of an enzyme production process. The project objective is to design the most cost efficient process for the enzyme production by recombinant bacteria.
