What is Bioprocess Engineering
Program?
What is Bioprocess Engineering Program?
is a specialization of biological processes
and Biotechnology in Chemical
Engineering field. It deals with the design
and development of equipment and
processes for the manufacturing of biobased products such as food, feed,
pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals,
chemicals, polymers, and etc, from
biological materials. Is also a
conglomerate of mathematics, biology
and chemical design, and consists of
various spectrums like studying of
fermentors (mode of operations etc.),
large scale production of biological
product, optimization of yield in the endproduct and the quality of end-product
and microorganism cellular-based
productions.
is a chemical engineering
discipline associated with the
production of biological
related entities such as design
and operation of fermentation
systems, biopharmaceuticals,
biofuels, development of food
processing systems,
application and testing of
product separation
technologies, design of
instrumentation to monitor
and control biological
processes, and many more.
What is Bioprocess Engineering Program?
What separates you from other engineers?
 the understanding of how every engineering field relates to living
systems. With the rapid growth of biologically based
technologies, bioprocess engineers are uniquely qualified to
solve the problems of today and tomorrow (ex: green
technology).
 They provide a bridge between the research laboratory activities
and the economics, and large-scale commercial
implementation of biotechnologies.
 “You know the chemical process, and of course
you know the biological process”
What Bioprocess Engineers do?
“Production of dairy based product, ex: Cheese,
yogurt, cultured milk, etc”
A Bioprocess Engineer should be able to solve/ do the
following problems / tasks:
Upstream: microorganisms, bioreactors, control
environment, growth kinetics, reactions, production,
fermentation process, etc.
Downstream: Separation of cells, biomass, impurities to
obtain purified products.
