Analysis of batch reactor, batch growth kinetics, enzyme immobilization kinetics, RTD studies in mixed flow and plug flow reactors. Evaluation of production by Fermentor performance.

Since the mechanisms of reactions involved in most of bioprocess industries are fairly complex and time and cost for development of design data base are limited, so it is necessary for a bioprocess engineer to know the experimental methods and equipment involved in bioprocess industry.

Biokinetics lab consists of experiments methods for acquiring the data to develop rate equations and to determine numerical rate parameters for specific reaction system and also enzyme reaction kinetics and effects of physical parameters on enzyme activity
