Preface
The remarkable progress in biotechnology since the 1970s suggested the
possibility of innovation in mass conversion processes using biological
functions. However, it also indicated the importance of viewing a bio
production process as a whole and of improving the efficiencies of up
and down-stream processings harmonically, for which chemical engineers
are responsible. During the past decade, many departments of bio
chemical engineering in universities have been organized and the
direction of research and development in industry has been gradually
settled. Accordingly, the supporting academic societies have focused a
considerable part of their activities on biochemical engineering. In this
context, we may regard the present situation as one where the initial
boost has finished and flowers are blooming. Now is the turning point
as to whether we can be fruitful and whether we can mature in the twenty
first century. The burden on biochemical engineering is very heavy.
This book is the proceedings of the Asia-Pacific Biochemical Engi
neering Conference 1992 (APBioChEC'92), held in Yokohama, Japan
from April 12-15, 1992. The conference was jointly organized by The
Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan, The Korean Institute of Chemical
Engineers, and The American Institute of Chemical Engineers, and is
the second conference, following the first held at Kyungju, Korea in
1990. We hope the proceedings will provide an overview of world trends
in research into biochemical engineering, specific research interests in
the Asia-Pacific region, and various budding research projects which, in
the future, will develop and mature.
In organizing APBioChEC'92, we are indebted to the members of the
organizing committee, especially Drs. K. Arai, T. Kajiuchi, H. Kataoka,
T. Kimura, T. Kobayashi, T. Kodama, K. Matsumoto, M. Matsumura,
and K. Saito. International advisory board members helped us by inviting
many overseas participants to attend APBioChEC'92. The following
session chairpersons assisted us in organizing the conference and review
ing the manuscripts: Drs. K. Funatsu, S. Iijima, H. Ishikawa, S. Katoh,
o. Miyawaki, S. Nagai, K. Nakamura, K. Nakanishi, H. Ohtake,
S. Shioya, S. Tone, T. Yamane, and T. Yoshida.
We are grateful to-the following cosponsors: The Japan Bioindustry
Association; Japan Society of Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Agro
chemistry; The Society of Fermentation Technology, Japan; Japanese
Society of Enzyme Engineering; The Membrane Society of Japan; The
