The "Himmelfahrtstagung" – a 3-day annual conference happening the week before Ascension Day – is the main event for Bioprocess and Biochemical engineers in Germany. The conference is organised by the Biochemical Engineering group of DECHEMA – Germany’s Society for Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology. The event is known for its vivid character offering open and constructive discussions extra time.
Transferring bioprocesses from the lab to production is accompanied by chemical, biological and physical impact factors. While lab-scale approaches benefit from high volumetric power input, homogenous mixing and high mass-transfer rates, processes in production-scale are likewise restricted suffering from economical and technical restrictions. As such large-scale bioreactor conditions are inhomogeneous showing gradients of nutrients, dissolved gases, pH etc. Biocatalysts experience these gradients while travelling through different zones inside the reactor. As a consequence, performance data of large scale may differ significantly from those in lab tests.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
