Continuous Manufacturing

Summary

Continuous manufacturing has been recognized as the biggest opportunity for further optimization of the production of biopharmaceuticals and industrial enzymes in a more efficient way. This has the potential to significantly lower the production costs and enable accessibility of biologics to a much wider population, including developing countries, and to reduce the environmental footprint, and improve product quality. Despite the advantages of continuous manufacturing, the vast majority of biologics is still produced entirely in batch mode, and the product recovery is completely performed in a batch-wise manner. With this mini symposium we expect to address several topics including , economic and environmental modelling, miniaturization, scale-up and scale-down of unit operations and process design and development of integrated continuous downstream processes, which will t contribute to the intensification of the downstream processing of biological products and to train scientists in the field of continuous downstream processing.

Topics

►Topic 49: MINIATURIZATION, SCALE-UP AND SCALE-DOWN
►Topic 50: MODELING OF DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING
►Topic 51: PROCESS DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT OF INTEGRATED CONTINUOUS DOWNSTREAM PROCESSES
►Topic 52: ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL MODELLING
►Topic 53: INDUSTRIAL CASES /EXAMPLES
