Chemical Process Engineering

How can I have your biochemical engineer or biomedical engineer use VisiMix software?

Every process regarding materials that interact among each other and generate processes related to biochemical results in microorganisms or some large or small molecules that are influenced by our body, is involved in the unit operation that is mixing. By giving any engineer, the process to generate numbers that characterize the mixing that happens in the equipment, VisiMix is a software that generates enough knowledge required for every chemical engineering process engineer to connect between the biochemical phenomena or biomedical phenomena that used to manufacture the final product.

A very typical use in the biochemical engineering is fermentation. In the manufacturing process, we try to control the growth of the quantity of microorganisms we have in our sterile vessel in order to manufacture our specific product. To do this, we are required to provide the microorganisms all the conditions in order to grow and to multiply. Through their growth, we manufacture our materials indirectly because the output of this becomes some material that we look for or inside the microorganism we are generating our material with. After that, with some unit operations, we are able to extract from the cell and get our product. So, the capability to generate the conditions is the mixing. And VisiMix is the expert software that you can use in a very fast way, designed for industry, in order to provide enough knowledge that every process chemist needs to advise colleagues how to generate better conditions for their process.

So, the use of the software is straightforward in this field, because like any other area of process engineering, what we are really talking about is how to generate the conditions materials need to interact in a way that will generate good results in terms of purity, quality and productivity. The main point here is that when we work in the lab and use industry equipment, we need to reproduce our results with other equipment that is slightly different in geometry or very different because it’s from small scale to big scale with different geometry. The key point is to identify the mixing parameters, which are generating the interaction between the materials that will guide our products to our results, in a way that is good for the process.

So, this is the way to do it. We can use different unit operations, not just the gas liquid example I provided; the operations can be in reactions with solid-liquid, liquid-liquid and emulsifications. We can avoid problems in the sterile equipment by heat transfer that is not enough, and or generated problems and safety processes. So, any field that involves chemicals that you are mixing in equipment to generate results can result in a light deviation in the production equipment. But this operation may be enough to provide problems or generate problems in productive, quality operation that we can avoid, if we are including this consideration as part of the knowledge of the process.
