Proof of Concepts
BIONET performs Tangential Flow Filtration proof-of-concepts. If you have never tried this technology with your process, BIONET can help you to verify if TFF is the right system for you.
- Process compatibility: the proof of concept ensures that TFF is compatible with your specific products and processes.
- Scale-up assessment: trials at bench scale are completely reliable to get the key performance indicators (KPIs) that are necessary for designing at larger scales.
- Cost-benefit assessment: allows estimating the operating costs and economic benefits of industrial TFF systems over time.
Technology Screening
BIONET also performs technology screening. For this purpose, TFF is performed with different types of membranes to determine the best technology for your process.
- Benchmarking: These tests allow the comparison of different membranes technologies based on objective metrics and criteria. This facilitates decision making and the choice of the most beneficial option.
- Risk reduction: Technology screening tests can help identify and mitigate potential problems prior to implementation. This reduces the risk of costly problems or unforeseen challenges later in the project.
- Resource optimization: By choosing the right technology from the outset, unnecessary spending on unsuitable technologies is avoided. This optimizes the use of resources.
Optimization Process
For those cases in which it has already been verified that the TFF works and the best type of membrane has been selected, BIONET also offers process optimization services, in which the customer will be provided with the best parameters for its process after verification by our experts.
- Performance optimization: once TFF is validated as a suitable technology for your process, optimization trials can also be assessed to determine the most recommended working conditions in terms of shear or cross flow rate, transmembrane pressure, temperature, concentration factor, etc.
- Increased productivity: Optimization can increase the production or delivery capacity of a process without the need for significant investments in additional resources.
- Improved competitiveness: Companies that optimize their processes can offer more competitive prices, which can help them gain market share and compete more effectively.
