17 - 22 September 2006, Supetar, Island of Brac, Croatia
Abstract
It is organised under the auspices of The European Federation of Biotechnology by the Working Group on Bioreactor Performance, in collaboration with other Working Groups (Working Group on Modelling, Monitoring, Measurement & Control and Working Group on Downstream Processing and Recovery of Bioproducts) of the Section on Biochemical Engineering Science.
The course covers the full spectrum of bioprocess engineering, starting from genetic concepts for micro-organisms used to produce pharmaceutical and other products via microbial physiology, bioreaction kinetics to bioreactor design and scale-up. The organisms considered range from simple bacteria to highly specialised animal cell cultures. There is also a strong coverage of measurement, control and optimisation and how they interact with each other and with the specific bioreaction of interest. Finally, there is a broad-brush coverage of downstream processing.
The lectures are supplemented by computer-based (MATLAB) exercises (no previous experience of MATLAB is required), discussions and a Case Study and participants are also encouraged to bring posters of their work. Selected candidates will be invited to make short oral presentations (of approximately 5 minutes duration), at a ‘Speakers’ Corner’, to be held during the course.
Location
The EFB Bioreactor Engineering Course will be held on the Island of Brac, Croatia.
