The course focuses on understanding biological processes and their applications in unit operations of biotechnological production. It is based on a quantitative description of formation, preservation and transformation of energy in cells during cell growth and product formation. Building on the knowledge of Bioengineering I, the course develops deeper understanding of the relationships between processes, and the ability to select the appropriate types of equipment and carry out their design into a production line.
Aim of the course -
