Title
Designing and Scaling a Robust Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing Process
Abstract: Successful scaling of unit operations is an important requirement in biopharmaceutical industry where process operations are distinguished by strict adherence to validation cGMP and regulatory guidelines. Robust process scaling relies on techniques and strategies that ensure predictable and consistent process operation on a large scale. Furthermore consideration of system design equipment effects process tie-ins and integration facility constraints and location effects all play an important role in establishing a robust process operation. The current presentation discusses the concepts and principles relating to scaling of unit operations and describes some of the pitfalls and best practices approaches to scaling through real world case study examples
