Biomolecular Engineering Solutions for Renewable Specialty Chemicals: Microorganisms, Products, and Processes [Hardcover]

Discover?biomolecular engineering technologies for the production of biofuels, pharmaceuticals, organic and amino acids, vitamins, biopolymers, surfactants, detergents, and enzymes??

In?Biomolecular Engineering Solutions for Renewable Specialty Chemicals, distinguished researchers and?editors?Drs.?R. Navanietha Krishnaraj?and?Rajesh K. Sani?deliver?a collection of insightful resources on advanced technologies in the synthesis and purification of value-added compounds.?Readers will discover new technologies that assist in the commercialization of the production of value-added products.?

The editors also include resources that offer strategies for overcoming current limitations in biochemical synthesis, including purification.?The articles within cover topics like the rewiring of anaerobic microbial processes for methane and hythane production, the extremophilic bioprocessing of wastes to biofuels, reverse methanogenesis of methane to biopolymers and value-added products, and more.?

The book presents advanced concepts and biomolecular engineering technologies for the production of high-value, low-volume products, like therapeutic molecules, and describes methods for improving microbes and enzymes using protein engineering, metabolic engineering, and systems biology approaches for converting wastes.??

Readers will also discover:?
