BioProScale Symposium "Inhomogenieties in large-scale bioreactors: Description – scaling – control"

24 to 27 November 2009, Berlin, Germany

Target groups
Producers of biogas and enzymes, antibiotic production, bioprocess development, pharmaceutical bioprocesses, brewery processes – experts from research & development and industrial practice

Aim
Large scale bioprocesses are non-homogenous systems which are generally characterized by lower biomass yield and different metabolic rates if compared to small scale laboratory processes. Various approaches have been undertaken in the past to characterize large scale bioreactors, to understand the biology of large-scale systems, to develop 2D and 3D computational models and tools to simulate such processes in laboratory scale.
The aim of this symposium is to bring stakeholders which work with different large-scale bioprocesses (e.g. biogas, brewing, enzymes and metabolite production, pharma) together to discuss their experiences and research needs.

Organisers
Technische Universität Berlin, Department of Bioprocess Technology, and Institute for Biotechnology and Fermentation in Berlin (IfGB) in cooperation with BioProScale.

Language
Congress language is Englisch. No translation will be provided.
