El objeto fundamental de la ingeniería química son los procesos de transformación. Estos procesos comprenden modificaciones de índole física y química de materias primas e insumos con el fin de convertirlos en productos que, por lo general, son materiales intermedios valiosos en la cadena de la compleja industria química. Así pues, los procesos están conformados por unidades o equipos, en los cuales tienen lugar cambios físicos o químicos....

A new science is reengineering the fabric of life. Synthetic biology offers bold new ways of manufacturing medicines, clothing, foods, fragrances, and fuels, often using microbe fermentation, much like brewing beer. The technology can help confront climate change, break down industrial pollutants, and fight novel viruses. Today, researchers are manipulating life forms and automating evolution to create vegetarian "meat," renewable construction materials,...

HERE IS THE FIRST BOOK THAT HAS COME OUT WITH STORIES FROM THE PALM OIL MILLS. Palm oil is a big business. Palm oil has been widely used in food and non-food industries. More than half the products on sale in supermarkets are made with palm oil, yet many people hardly know anything about this industry. They don't even know chemical engineers have a significant role to play in this industry. This book provides a series of episodes for you to discover...

Wir erleben derzeit eine neue Dimension der Gentechnik, doch wohin soll die Reise führen? Sollen wir Krankheiten therapieren oder besser genetisch reparieren? Führt die neue Gentechnik verbunden mit der modernen Reproduktionsbiologie zu Designer-Babies? Und: Dürfen wir eine Liberalisierung dieser Techniken als Bürgerwissenschaft (Citizen Science) zulassen? Neue Methoden können das Erbgut präzise verändern – und sie hinterlassen keine Spuren....

First published in 1962, Silent Spring alerted a large audience to the environmental and human dangers of indiscriminate use of pesticides, spurring revolutionary changes in the laws affecting our air, land, and water. "Silent Spring became a runaway bestseller, with international reverberations ... Even if she had not inspired a generation of activists, Carson would prevail as one of the greatest nature writers in American letters" (Peter Matthiessen,...

Dieses essential soll als Einführung für eine zeitgemäße öffentliche Diskussion zur Gentechnologie dienen. Die Gentechnik betrifft uns alle in vielen Bereichen und wir müssen uns trauen, bunter und weiter zu denken. Tatsächlich kann bereits das komplette Erbgut von Viren und Bakterien chemisch erzeugt und „zum Leben erweckt" werden. Mit der Genchirurgie ist die Medizin an einem Scheidepunkt: Wollen wir Erbkrankheiten therapieren oder genetisch...
