Achieving process efficiency in the pharmaceutical industry through digital transformation

Accelerate digital transformation with fluid dynamics simulation

In the biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry, process efficiency is key to accelerating the production of safe and effective medications.

In this webinar, you will learn how to optimize the manufacturing process efficiency with advanced fluid and particle dynamics simulation. The presentation reveals how computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation can help better understand multiphase interactions, and includes real-world examples from the industry, such as the application of multiphase CFD for the characterization and optimization of a bioreactor.

Achieve process efficiency with advanced fluid and particle dynamics simulation in the biopharmaceutical industry

Multiphase interactions are complex phenomena that are difficult to understand and characterize. CFD can help engineers better understand interactions and optimize designs. This allows engineers to determine if key performance indicators are being met, how they can be improved, and to guide the costly and time-consuming scale-up process. This webinar reveals how to achieve better process efficiency with CFD simulation of multiphase interactions, through a wealth of industry examples.

Learn how simulation enables you to:

• Understand solid-solid phase interaction – for example, to improve a feed hopper design or a twin-screw granulator design
• Study solid-liquid phase interaction – for example, to investigate the minimum speed of rotation to achieve complete suspension of solids in a stirred tank
• Understand gas-liquid phase interaction and account for the effect of coalescence and break-up of bubbles on gas hold up distribution and mass transfer
