Description
Springer Integration Of Membrane Processes Into Bioconversions 2000 Edition by Katalin Bélafi-Bakó László Gubicza J. Mulder
Proceedings of the European Membrane Society XVI Annual Summer School on Integration of Membrane Processes into Bioconversions held August 22-27 1999 in Veszprem Hungary. The purpose of this book is to give an overview of the current situation of membrane separation processes in the field of bioengineering and also to describe how their joint application possibilities can be used in both laboratory and industrial scale applications. In commercial applications focus is centered on the fields of food industry chemical/fine chemical industry and environmental protection. Most of the European experts in the interdisciplinary fields of membrane processes and bioconversions have contributed to the chapters in this work making it the most up-to-date volume currently available.
