Progress in industrial bioprocess engineering in China

工业生物技术的进步离不开工业生物过程工程研究的不断深入及发展,我国作为工业发酵大国在工业生物技术由实验室向产业化转化过程中面对诸多挑战,由此而逐渐发展起来的我国工业生物过程工程发展先后经历了多个阶段,伴随着不同阶段的发展,我国的工业生物技术水平得到不断的提升。本文重点回顾了近三、四十年来我国工业生物过程工程发展的历程,包括早期由化工过程研究引入的动力学模型化研究、基于过程控制的优化理论与方法的应用、基于过程在线监测技术发展起来的参数相关性分析方法、过程多尺度理论的建立、基于现代固态发酵的新型固态发酵罐的设计及优化技术发展等。通过对生物过程工程发展历程的回顾对先进工业生物过程发展面临的技术难题及由此引出的未来发展重点方向进行了探讨。

The advances of industrial biotechnology highly depend on the development of industrial bioprocess researches. In China, we are facing several challenges because of a huge national industrial fermentation capacity. The industrial bioprocess development experienced several main stages. This work mainly reviews the development of the industrial bioprocess in China during the past 30 or 40 years： including the early stage kinetics model study derived from classical chemical engineering, researching method based on control theory, multiple-parameter analysis techniques of on-line measuring instruments and techniques, and multi-scale analysis theory, and also solid state fermentation techniques and fermenters. In addition, the cutting edge of bioprocess engineering was also addressed.
