Bachelor’s / Master’s / Semester Thesis - Evaluation of Biotechnological Processes using SuperPro Designer

29.07.2025, Abschlussarbeiten, Bachelor- und Masterarbeiten

In this project the software SuperPro Designer is used to evalute different biotechnological processes regarding different process metrics.

In this research project, genetically optimized E. coli strains expressing different extracellular high-value proteins will be used to establish different concepts of process intensification. Process intensification in the biopharmaceutical industry aims for the improvement of productivity and flexibility while simultaneously decreasing cost and process footprint. This can be realized through establishing and applying innovative equipment, methods, and modes during the development of integrated upstream and downstream processes.
Focus of this thesis, is the modeling, evaluation and optimization of the developed process using the industry standard software SuperPro Designer. Therefore, the experimentally obtained data need to be added to the software and checked for consistency, following a cost evaluation and further process relevant evaluations.
