Technical Biochemistry combines biology with engineering principles by translating biochemistry into technical applications. This book covers topics such as fermentation in bioreactors and the development of sustainable production processes. It demonstrates how engineering and mathematics penetrate into biology, and discusses the significance of Technical Biochemistry for modern society. In doing so, it illuminates historical developments as well as current achievements and challenges of Technical Biochemistry. The discipline also faces ethical and moral questions regarding the use of genetic engineering and safety of bio-based technologies.
