Biological Process Engineering: An Analogical Approach to Fluid Flow, Heat Transfer, and Mass Transfer Applied to Biological Systems

Description:

A unique, accessible guide to the application of engineering methods to biological systems.

Presenting for the first time a practical, design-oriented, interdisciplinary approach to transport phenomena involving biological systems, Biological Process Engineering emphasizes the common aspects of the three main transport processes-fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer. In clear and simple terms, it explores the relevance of these processes to broadly defined biological systems such as the growth of microbes in bioreactors, the leaching of pollutants into groundwater, and the chemistry of food manufacturing. Reaching well beyond standard applications in medicine and the environment to areas of biotechnology, aquaculture, agriculture, and food processing, this book promotes analogical thinking that will lead to creative solutions. While keeping the mathematics to a minimum, it explains principles of effective system modeling and demonstrates a wide variety of problem-solving techniques. Readers will find:
* Systems diagrams comparing and contrasting different transport processes
* Biological examples for all types of systems, including metabolic pathways, locomotion, reproduction, responses to thermal conditions, and more
* Numerous design charts and procedures
* An extensive collection of tables of parameter values, not found in any other text.

An ideal undergraduate text for biological engineering students taking courses in transport processes, Biological Process Engineering is also an excellent reference for practicing engineers. It introduces the reader to diverse biological phenomena, serves as a stepping-stone to more theoretical topics, and provides important insights into the fast-growing arena of biological engineering.

From the Author

This is a different approach to transport processes.
I've taught a course for many years dealing with fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer in biological systems, and was never really happy with conventional texts. They were too mathematical; they were not related to biological systems in the broadest sense; they didn't consider design; they didn't contain enough concrete information. I wanted a text that would use a systems approach, would emphasize design processes, would be as clearly written as possible, would contain many solved examples, would treat biological applications intrinsically rather than as an afterthought, and would contain many tables with enough properties values that readers would not need to go elsewhere except for very highly specialized problems. And, lastly, I wanted an attractive text that is easily perused. I think I have succeeded in most of these.

This text is meant to be an introductory book on transport processes in biological systems. More specialized and mathematical books can be read after this one, if need be. But, for the practicing engineer who must depend on one book to lead to many of the answers in fluid flow, heat transfer, or mass transfer, I think this book will do the job.

Great reference.

An excellent book. It is very unique approach. It allows one to take a systems approach to the Biological functions. We use it as a resource in predicting reactions to outside stimuli on the human respiratory system.Dr. Johnson is a thorough and excellent communicator.
