Bioprocess Kinetics and Systems Engineering is the first of its kind and contains systematic and comprehensive content on bioprocess kinetics, bioprocess systems, sustainability and reaction engineering. Dr. Shijie Liu reviews the relevant fundamentals of chemical kinetics--including batch and continuous reactors, biochemistry, microbiology, molecular biology, reaction engineering, and bioprocess systems engineering--introducing key principles that enable bioprocess engineers to engage in the analysis, optimization, design and consistent control over biological and chemical transformations.

Shijie Liu, Professor of Paper and Bioprocess Engineering at State University of New York - College of Environmental Science and Forestry (SUNY ESF) (http://www.esf.edu/pbe/people/liu). Editor-In-Chief, Journal of Bioprocess Engineering and Biorefinery ( http://www.aspbs.com/jbeb). Teaching and research experience falls in the areas of chemical reaction engineering, bioreaction engineering, bioprocess engineering, transport phenomena, and renewable energy. He received a BSc in Chemical Engineering from Chengdu University of Science and Technology (now Sichuan University), Chengdu, China, in 1982, and earned a PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada, in 1992.
"Combining biology and chemical engineering, Liu presents this overview of bioprocess engineering, applying typical techniques of the chemical industry to biosynthetic processes.Although formulated as a textbook, the level of detail would also make this suitable as a laboratory reference."--Reference & Research Book News, October 2013
