About this Course

TWO-DAY COURSE

Using a combination of theory and hands-on instruction, participants will learn the key principles and techniques involved in the development and optimization of normal flow filtration processes.

This two day course covers all aspects of sizing and scale up of normal flow filters which include the “Vmax™ Technique” for sizing sterile filters, prefilter, virus filters, and the “Pmax™ - Tmax™

Techniques” for sizing depth filters. Participants will be assessed to gauge their understanding of the different topics taught during the training

What will you be able to do after attending this course?

• You will understand the best practices techniques for filter sizing and optimization, the importance of operating parameters and designing to manufacturing constraints, and validating sizing estimates through appropriate process simulation:
  
• Carry out filter sizing evaluations and estimate filter area requirements for normal flow filters
  
• Apply and perform the Vmax™ , Pmax™ and Tmax™ data analysis
  
• Establish optimized filter configuration for an application
  
• Apply appropriate scale-up guidelines to account for manufacturing constraints
  

What will you receive?

• A full set of course notes
  
• Certificate of Achievement
  

Who should attend?

The course is designed primarily for engineers or scientists from R&D, process development, pilot or production facilities.

NB: Participants must complete “Operate Normal Flow Filtration Process Equipment” course or have equivalent experience

WHICH OF YOUR CHALLENGES DOES THIS COURSE ADDRESS?

• Undersized or oversized filter configurations in manufacturing.
  
• Manufacturing constraints and their impact on filter sizing.
  
• Scale-up issues encountered during filtration
