A Cost Analysis and Evaluation of Perfused Seed Train Scenarios Through Proce...MilliporeSigma
Access the interactive recording: https://bit.ly/386d4fh
Abstract:
The bioprocessing industry is driving towards intensified processes to reduce cost of goods and/or increase productivity. Perfused seed is one specific intensified upstream process that can provide benefits to mAb production. To better understand these benefits, BioSolve process modeling software was used to perform a holistic cost analysis of several different perfused seed train scenarios. The effect of variables such as production/seed ratio, number of production bioreactors, titer, and production duration were evaluated. Results showed that under certain scenarios, perfused seed train options could deliver lower cost of goods, increase product throughput, or a combination of both.
Accelerating cell therapy manufacturing through robust process development - ...MilliporeSigma
Watch the webinar here: https://bit.ly/2WFoinn
Industry trends in regenerative medicine highlight a critical need for automated and closed manufacturing to support scalable production. With over 1,000 clinical trials underway worldwide utilizing the RM/AT designation, it's increasingly more important that successful clinical trials translate to marketable treatments. To ensure proper translation, manufacturing strategies must generate products that are effective, safe, consistent and help reduce costs. To achieve this goal, fit-for-purpose solutions are required.
This webinar presents an introduction to our fit-for-purpose cell therapy manufacturing solution, the ekko™ cell processing system. We will share process development strategies through case studies that support a variety of unit operation steps across cell types, including but not limited to, wash and concentration of T cells and aggregate processing of induced pluripotent cells.
The goal of our presentation is to share process development strategies for solutions that can be seamlessly translated and implemented for use in commercial production.
In this webinar, you will learn:
* Manufacturing trends for closed and automated cell therapy processes and requirements for industrialization of cell therapies
* Introduction to acoustic cell processing and how it works
* Process optimization with case studies across a variety of cell types and unit operations

16. Some Renewable Energy Options
On Site Wind Power
Typical >18 year payback on Wind Turbines
Turbine Size typically 0.2kW to 10kW
Typical Offices/Laboratories Energy Usage 200,000 kWhr/yr
Example above needs 20 off 10kW Wind Turbines
Concerns over noise and takes up valuable real estate space
Height requirements can mean visual impact concern for planning
applications
Ducted wind turbines may overcome the visual concerns in future
by putting turbines inside buildings
Off Site Wind Power Options – Green Energy
Purchase power from a renewable energy provider
Good option where available – consider during site selection
Energy &
Atmosphere
17. Some Renewable Energy Options
Solar Power
Passive Solar Architecture
Consider the Building Orientation on the site
Significant solar gain issues can be minimised
Solar Photovoltaic Power Panels
Example : Google Headquarters – 9,000 solar panels gave
1.6MW which was 30% of peak power demand
Example : Payback was 7 years, but included a grant
Solar Collector Water Heating
Consider this approach for some of the hot water duties
Payback against electric and gas hot water generation is good
Energy &
Atmosphere
18. Some Renewable Energy Options
Biomass & Biofuels
If a carbon source is combusted to release carbon dioxide,
then the re-growth of that carbon source will reabsorb the
carbon dioxide – net carbon emissions effectively zero
Biomass – solid fuels capable of combustion
Examples: wood, agricultural waste, living cell materials
Biofuels – Liquid versions of biomass
Examples: ethanol, methanol, methane, hydrogen
Example of Biomass in a Biopharmaceutical Facility
Biomass boiler to handle base load heating (2MW)
Supplemental to a traditional gas boiler run on demand
for peak demand or if biomass (wood chips) supply issues
Supplier has stock close to site & delivers to onsite silo
Payback CO2 emissions reduced by 88%, but 1 extra boiler
Energy &
Atmosphere
19. Hot and Chilled Water Sources, Storage and Distribution
Geothermal Heating Systems
Where geothermal conditions permit hot water can be
obtained through geothermal closed loop systems
Concrete Thermal Slabs
Use of concrete slab thermal capacity for heating and
cooling
Can use relatively high water temperatures for cooling,
and low water temperatures for heating
Chilled Beams
Active chilled beams reduce the traditional air
conditioning requirements for offices
Energy &
Atmosphere
20. HVAC & Building Services Energy Usage
HVAC/Building Services
Primary energy users are - Fan Power, Heating, Cooling
and Dehumidification
Fan Power is the biggest energy user, limit the motive
power per m3 of air during the design to save energy and
use direct drive fans with VSD (most energy efficient)
Reduce air change rates, example:
ISO 7 – use 30 ac/hr instead of 40 ach/hr
ISO 8 - use 15 ac/hr instead of 20 ac/hr
Consider primary air handler (to dehumidify by cooling)
& a secondary air handler (to trim temperature) of fresh
(20%) and recirculating (80%) air – saves energy overall
Widen acceptable humidity bands to reduce
humidification loads
Energy &
Atmosphere
21. Centocor Example - Sustainable Energy Engineering
Do NOT deploy Renewable Energy Technology to a ‘Gas Guzzling’
Facility – THIS IS NOT SUSTAINABLE!
Begin with Energy Efficiency – Minimise the facility and process
Energy Demand
Then deploy Renewable Energy
In their totality, Energy Efficiency measures reduce Capital investment

Lighting
Lighting is a large energy consumer in the
manufacturing space
Occupancy –vs- Lighting Strategy
Assess the various plant areas to determine
frequency of occupancy
Warehouse, plant room areas, and even some
manufacturing areas can have low occupancy
In low occupancy areas consider occupancy sensors to
switch light down to a minimum level when unoccupied
Light Pipes
Consider Light Pipes (rather than artificial lights) to
bring natural light into warehouse and plant rooms
that wouldn’t be directly adjacent to outside locations

26. Utility Energy Usage
Water For Injection (WFI)
One of the biggest utility energy users, multi-effect vs Vapor
Compression Stills
Focus on distribution temperatures – don’t run loops too
hot – run at close to 80ºC, not 95ºC
BioKill (by Heat)
Another energy intensive operation, consider minimum
temperatures – avoid excessive safety margin
Utility Redundancy
Photos coutesy Steritech
Many people operate 2 off 75% utility systems, not always
efficient at the normal base load
Consider alternative strategy of 2 off 66% + 1 off 53%
This is usually a more efficient mode of operation
