The inaugural session will focus on "Mechanistic and Hybrid Modeling in Downstream Processing," a critical area in biotechnology that enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of bioprocesses. Models have been used successfully both in industry and academia to describe downstream process unit operations. Chromatography, in particular, can be described very well using mechanistic models. However, some effects, such as biological fouling in membrane separation, often require statistical models based on extensive empirical data to be predicted sufficiently. This webinar will provide insights into the latest advancements and practical applications of these modeling techniques, which are essential for optimizing production processes, reducing costs, and ensuring product quality.
Our speakers:
Dr. Maximilian Krippl (Novasign GmbH): Novasign GmbH has developed a streamlined hybrid modeling toolbox that combines all the benefits of mechanistic and statistical models into hybrid models. Dr. Krippl will share valuable case studies and practical insights on how these models can drive process improvements and innovation in the industry.
Dr. Jürgen Beck (BOKU University): cutting-edge applications of mechanistic chromatography models will be presented, including an overview of the open-source modeling platform CADET.
