Downstream Processing - Primary Recovery Course

The Modular Training for the Bioprocess Industries (MBI) programme pioneered by UCL Biochemical Engineering is a series of intensive short courses designed for professionals in the bioprocessing industry.

This 4-day course focuses on the biological product recovery stage and, through a series of lectures and case studies will enable participants to:

  • Compare these unit operations for suitability within the process
  • Determine the most appropriate equipment for separations and specify the right operating conditions
  • Learn to use Ultra Scale Down tool for prediction of large scale separation performance
  • Understand the interaction among fermentation, recovery and purification and learn the integrated solutions for bioprocess development
This module is designed for scientists and engineers involved in design, development and operation of primary recovery steps as well as associated steps in upstream and purification processes. It will be useful for bioprocess developers, R&D scientists, manufacturing technologists and manufacturing operational managers.

Emphasis is on teaching through interactive problem solving case studies in small classes for effective learning. Each course is UCL-accredited and can be taken individually or combined for a Masters level qualification.
