Design and Development of Biological, Chemical, Food and Pharmaceutical Products is a textbook by the authors Johannes A. Wesselingh, Soren Zinck Kiil, and Martin E. Vigild. The book is based on their experience in product development and technical universities and focuses on product design within the food and chemical engineering sectors. This handbook provides a clear introduction to product development as an independent discipline, separate from process engineering.
Overview
This textbook combines academic knowledge with practical examples from various industries, giving students insight into product development. It highlights the importance of problem-solving and team learning and covers, among other topics, colloid science, an essential but often overlooked part. Knowledge of calculus, physical chemistry, and basic chemistry is assumed.
The authors share their many years of experience to support students in developing effective working methods within product design. Examples and case studies provide practical applications that align with real work in industry.
