Learning objectives | ||||
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the basic principles of biochemical engineering in contemporary biotechnological processes, with a more detailed understanding of the individual phases of the bioprocess. | ||||
Learning outcomes | ||||
Students will be trained for independent professional and scientific work on solving practical problems in the field of biochemical or bioprocess engineering. | ||||
Content | ||||
Biocatalysts; nutritious substrates; methods and kinetics of sterilization of nutrients; discontinuous and continuous sterilization of nutrient substrates by heat; phenomen of transmission in bioprocess; mass transfer in a bioreactor; aeration of the fermentation medium; transfer of the amount of movement in the bioreactor; heat transfer in a biorector; characteristics of a discontinuous, semi-continuous and continuous bioprocess technique; Characteristics of deep and surface cultivation of microorganisms and cultivation in semi-solid and solid substrates; stoichiometry of bioprocess; kinetics of simple enzymatic reactions with and without inhibition; stoichiometry of growth of microorganisms; methods for measuring the rate of growth; general criteria for selecting the process of isolating and purifying products; monitoring the flow of bioprocess; control of bioprocess. | ||||
