Est. 1994
Downstream Processing: From
Cell to Column
This module focuses on the
biological product recovery
stage and, through a series
of lectures, case studies and
pilot plant practical sessions,
will enable you to:
72.3736
• Understand the principles
•
•
•
•
of all the major recovery
operations: Centrifugation,
Membrane Systems, Filtration,
Cell Disruption, Precipitation,
Flocculation
Compare these unit operations
for suitability within the process
and study them in our unique pilot
plant
Determine the most appropriate
equipment for separations
and specify the right operating
conditions
Learn to use Ultra Scale Down
tool for prediction of large scale
separation performance
Understand the interaction
among fermentation, recovery
and purification and learn
the integrated solutions for
bioprocess development
