Session 326 - Advances in Bioseparations
Separations are a critical unit operation in any bioprocess. Biological metabolites are typically produced in relatively low amounts and thus concentration and purification can add significant cost to the overall processes. Separation of biological molecules and effluents often require special considerations not generally applicable to nonbiological separations. The focus of this session is to highlight the latest theoretical and experimental advances in bioseparations that promise to reduce costs and improve separation efficiency. Topics to be covered will include, but are not limited to: (1) crystallization and evaporation, (2) membrane-based bioseparations, (3) adsorption and ion exchange, (4) extraction, and (5) simulated moving bed chromatography.
