Description
Book SynopsisDesign and Development ofBiological, Chemical, Food and Pharmaceutical Products has been developed from course material from the authors' course in Chemical and Biochemical Product Design which has been running at the Technical University Denmark for years. The book draws on the authors' years of experience in academia and industry to provide an accessible introduction to this field, approaching product development as a subject in its own right rather than a sideline of process engineering
In this subject area, practical experience is the key to learning and this textbook provides examples and techniques to help the student get the best out of their projects. Design and Development of Biological, Chemical, Food and Pharma Products aims to aid students in developing good working habits for product development. Students are challenged with examples of real problems that they might encounter as engineers.
Written in an informal, student-friendly tone, this unique book in
