Textbooks

Mario Díaz, Principal Investigator of the TBR group and Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Environmental Technology at the University of Oviedo, has contributed in recent years to scientific dissemination with two reference books that could be very useful for students, Biotechnologists and Bioprocess engineering specialists. Already immersed in the academic year, surely they can help and interest you:


Bioprocess engineering (3rd Edition, 2021).

This book deals with the biotransformations and the physical tools of transport and separation, from the selection of products and the preparation of materials to packaging, to the economic and legal aspects, starting not only from an analysis of the basic industrial processes but also basic engineering and biological principles.

Undoubtedly, an ideal job for students of Biotechnology, Chemical Engineering, Bioprocesses, as well as specialties in Food Engineering, Pharmacy, etc. Also useful as a general reference for other engineering and applied sciences.


Equations and calculations for water treatment (Coordinator, 2019)

It is a book of Solved Problems, specifically 357, with which the vast majority of the possible calculations that may be required in the design and operation of water treatment plants are covered.

In this book, the theoretical aspects involved in the treatment of urban, potable, industrial wastewater and sludge are presented in a synthetic way, followed by applications of these concepts. In addition, it has been carried out with the collaboration of the members of the Spanish Water Treatment Board.
