Description
The bioseparation engineering of today includes downstream process engineering such as waste water, material and gas treatment. Taking
this tendency into account, bioseparation engineers gathered in Japan as a special research group under the main theme of "Recovery and
Recycle of Resources to Protect the Global Environment".
The scope of this book is based on the conference, and deals not only with
recent advances in bioseparation engineering in a narrow sence, but also the environmental engineering which includes waste water treatment
and bioremediation. The contributors of this book cover many disciplines such as chemical engineering, analytical chemistry, biochemistry,
and microbiology.
Bioseparation Engineering will stimulate young engineers and scientists who will develop bioseparation
engineering further in the 21st century, and contribute to a world-wide attention to the global environment
