Biochemical engineering biological reactors

Surface tension is an important property in the study of physics and chemistry at free surfaces as it affects the transfer rates of vapor absorption at the vapor-liquid interface. Such data are of importance to scientists, engineers, and practitioners in many fields such as chemical process and reactor engineering, flow and transport in porous media, materials selection and engineering, biomedical and biochemical engineering, electronic and electrical engineering, etc. The surface of a liquid is not only interesting for the fundamental aspects but also for its relevance in environmental problems, biological phenomena, and industrial applications. 

Early chapters focused on homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions, since these are the two major systems with which practicing engineers are concerned. However, there are also many important biological/biochemical reactors, and systems. This has become a major growth industry for engineers.
