Continuous Processing

Satisfying the modern trends of:
  • Sustainability
  • Quality by design
  • Containment
Batch processing has been the foundation of all pharmaceutical manufacturing because it is the way the science has been developed. Engineers understand that batch processes limit capacity, demand higher utility consumption, larger buildings, and increased staffing for manufacturing and quality.

Imagine if you had your utilities delivered to you in batches…not pretty, huh?

Now imagine your batch pharmaceutical facility operating continuously rather than in batches/week.

FW Biokinetics can help you bring this vision to fruition by:
  • Identifying continuous processing and semi-continuous opportunities
  • Assisting with equipment scale-up and prototype development
  • Providing a "toolbox" of proprietary techniques for applying engineering solutions to process science
  • Assisting with developing a business case for continuous processing
  • Implementing facility modeling and optimization
Successful continuous process applications include:
  • Perfusion cell culture
  • Simulated moving bed chromatography
  • Multi-column chromatography
  • In-line buffer dilution
  • Continuous tube reactors
  • HTST (High-Temperature, Short-Time) sterilization
  • Continuous waste kill/neutralization
  • Compendial water distribution (loop design)
