  • Unit Operations for Bioprocess Engineers

    Unit Operations for Bioprocess Engineers

    Unit Operations for Bioprocess Engineers Chenming (Mike) Zhang Department of Biological Systems Engineering Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Blacksburg, VA 24061 Abstract Unit Operations in Biological Systems Engineering was introduced into the curriculum at Virginia Tech in 2000. It is a lecture and laboratory combined course. The lectures and experiments covered in the course had a narrow focus before the author took over in 2002. To broaden the education for students selecting the Bioprocess Engineering option within the curriculum, the author has revised the content of the course to give the students an opportunity to understand that different unit operations can be applied in various industries, namely food, biochemical, and biotechnology. The experiments have been decreased from 14 to 8 so the students could have a better grasp of the theories and applications. Students’ responses showed that it is important to design the experiments in a way to stimulate their desire to learn and perform. The author found that it is possible to give the students a better view of the various unit operations in bioprocess engineering. Page 9.1342.1 Page 1 Introduction As defined by Shuler and Kargi (2002), “Bioprocess engineers are engineers working to apply the principles of various disciplines, such as chemical, mechanical, electrical, and industrial, to processes based on using living cells or subcomponents of such cells.” In other words, bioprocess engineers are engineers who process biological materials to produce useful goods for society. Without question, bioprocess engineering is a broad-based engineering discipline. As educators, it is our job to broaden the view of the students, so they can take advantage of numerous, diverse job opportunities presented to them when they finish their BS degree.

    Nanotechnology: a slightly different history Peter Schulz School of Applied Sciences UNICAMP Brazil [email protected] Originally published in Portuguese as a diffusion of Science article Nanotecnologia - uma história um pouco diferente Ciência Hoje 308, October 2013, p.26-29 Many introductory articles and books about nanotechnology have been written to disseminate this apparently new technology, which investigate and manipulates matter at dimension of a billionth of a meter. However, these texts show in general a common feature: there is very little about the origins of this multidisciplinary field. If anything is mentioned at all, a few dates, facts and characters are reinforced, which under the scrutiny of a careful historical digging do not sustain as really founding landmarks of the field. Nevertheless, in spite of these flaws, such historical narratives bring up important elements to understand and contextualize this human endeavor, as well as the corresponding dissemination among the public: would nanotechnology be a cultural imperative? Introduction: plenty of room beyond the bottom Nanotechnology is based on the investigation and manipulation of matter at the scale of billionths of a meter, i.e., nanometers; borrowing approaches from academic disciplines, which until recently were perceived more or less as isolated from each other: Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Material Sciences. Different groups, ranging from the scientific community to the general public, when asked about the history of nanotechnology seem to be satisfied with a tiny set of information spread out from site to site in the web. Within the most disseminated allegedly origins of nanotechnology, we can find the so called grandfather and launching act of nanotechnology, namely the famous physicist Richard Feynman (1918 - 1988) and his 1959 talk There is plenty of room at the bottom1.

Anne Montgomery, Cheryl Scott, and Peter Satzer, with Margit Holzer, Miriam Monge, Ralph Daumke, and Alexander Faude urrent biomanufacturing is driven to pursue continuous processing for cost reduction and increased productivity, Cespecially for monoclonal antibody (MAb) production and manufacturing. Although many technologies are now available and have been implemented in biodevelopment, implementation for large-scale production is still in its infancy. In a lively roundtable discussion at the BPI West conference in Santa Clara, CA (11 March 2019), participants touched on a number of important issues still to be resolved and technologies that are still in need of implementation at large scale. Below, moderator Peter Satzer (senior scientist RENTSCHLER BIOPHARMA (WWW.RENTSCHLER-BIOPHARMA.COM) with the Austrian Center of Industrial Biotechnology, Vienna) summarizes key points raised in that session.

    MARKO LEINO PROCESS SIMULATION UNIT OPERATION MODELS – REVIEW OF OPEN AND HSC CHEMISTRY I/O INTERFACES Master of Science Thesis Examiner: Professor Hannu Jaakkola Examiner and topic approved by the Faculty Council of the Faculty of Business and Built Environment on 6 April 2016 i ABSTRACT MARKO LEINO: Process Simulation Unit Operation Models – Review of Open and HSC Chemistry I/O Interfaces Tampere University of Technology Master of Science Thesis, 76 pages, 29 Appendix pages April 2016 Master’s Degree Programme in Information Technology Major: Software Engineering Examiner: Professor Hannu Jaakkola Keywords: CAPE-OPEN, HSC Chemistry Sim, unit operation, process simulation Chemical process modelling and simulation can be used as a design tool in the development of chemical plants, and is utilized as a means to evaluate different design options. The CAPE- OPEN interface standards were developed to allow the deployment and utilization of process modelling components in any compliant process modelling environment. This thesis examines the possibilities provided by the CAPE-OPEN interfaces and the .NET framework to develop compliant, cross-platform process modelling components, particularly unit operations. From the software engineering point of view, a unit operation is a represen- tation of physical equipment, and contains the mathematical model of its functionality. The study indicates that the differences between the CAPE-OPEN standards and Outotec HSC Chemistry Sim are negligible at the conceptual level. On the other hand, at the implementa- tion level, the differences are quite considerable. Regardless of the simulation application be- ing used, the modelling of unit operations requires interdisciplinary skills, and creating tools and methods to ease the development of such models is well justified.

This work reports the creation of a library of steady-state models of unit operations using OpenModelica. The use of this library is demonstrated through a few representative flow- sheets, and the results are compared with the steady-state simulators Aspen Plus and DWSIM.
