Pathway Design for Industrial Fermentation
Explore the industrial fermentation processes of chemical intermediates
In
Pathway Design for Industrial Fermentation, distinguished researcher
Dr. Walter Koch delivers an expert overview on industrial fermentation
production technology as compared with natural extraction, organic
chemistry, and biocatalysis. The book offers key insights for
professionals designing and monitoring fermentation processes.
The
author explores the applications, alternative production, biochemical
pathways, metabolic engineering strategy, and downstream processing of
various products—including C1 to C6 products—with a focus on low-value
products with market prices below 4€ per kilogram. Products will include
methane, ethane, acetate, lactic acid, alanine, and others.
With
specific commentary and insightful perspectives on the cost drivers and
technological aspects critical to commercially successful applications,
the book also includes:
Thorough introductions to methane, ethanol, acetate, lactic acid, alanine, and 3-Hydroxypropionic acid
Comprehensive explorations of 1,3-Propanediol, butanol, isobutanol, and isobutene
Practical discussions of 1,4-butanediol, succinic acid, itaconic acid, and glutamic acid
Fulsome treatments of isoprene, pentamethylenediamine, lysine, citric acid, and adipic acid
Perfect
for process engineers, biotechnologists, and chemical engineers,
Pathway Design for Industrial Fermentation will also benefit biochemists
and professionals working in the chemical and food industries.
