Rapid Fermentation Process
Design: From Development to
Manufacture
This module focuses on
rapid fermentation process
development and scale-up,
through a series of lectures
and case studies enabling you
to:
72.3736
• Understand engineering principles
of fermentation.
• D
etermine power consumption and
oxygen mass transfer.
• Evaluate different strategies for
scale-up and scale-down.
• Know about miniaturised
bioreactors and their role
in fermentation process
development.
• Understand how to design a
bioreactor and use data from
microscale experiments for scaleup.
Who should attend?
Fermentation scientists and
engineers in biotechnology and
biopharmaceutical companies’ or
similar who are involved in process
transfer to manufacturers and also
those in established fermentation
development groups wishing to
be kept up to date with the latest
research in this area.
