We
specialize in providing consultancy services in the field of industrial
fermentation, & our specific areas of expertise are:
|
|
| |
| |
|
Design
of complete fermentation plants, including culture laboratories
& utility services, for a wide variety of fermentation
processes such as antibiotics, vaccines, vitamins, steroids,
acids, biofertilizers, biopesticides etc.
|
| |
|
Design
of large scale submerged fermentors & associated sterile/non-sterile
equipments for mycelial, actinomycete, yeast & bacterial
fermentations.
|
| |
|
Prevention
& control of contamination, including getting rid of all
types of contamination in existing plants, i.e. yeast, phage,
bacterial & cross contamination.
|
| |
|
Design
of aseptic transfer pipelines with sterile sections &
steam locking arrangement for long-term contamination-free
performance.
|
| |
|
Design
of fed batch, repeated (cyclic) fed batch, & continuous
(chemostat) fermentation systems, for laboratory, pilot plant
or commercial scale operations.
|
| |
|
Design of automatic aseptic feed dosing systems with feed flow
measurement for fed batch fermentations. |
| |
|
Design of appropriate process control instrumentation systems
for various fermentation parameters such as temperature, aeration,
agitation, pH, DO, level, foam, exhaust gas etc. |
| |
|
Design of automatic media sterilization, either in-situ or external
(i.e. through continuous media sterilizer). |
| |
|
Design
of air filtration systems. |
| |
|
Troubleshooting of fermentation processes from laboratory to
commercial scale. |
| |
|
Planning of plant revamps including stagewise phasing out of
outdated equipments & induction of new equipments. |
| |
|
Planning
& supervising periodic maintenance shutdowns (total or
partial shutdowns) in existing plants, to ensure minimum loss
of productivity & minimum downtime of equipments.
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
We
augment the designing & planning work by undertaking the following
activities:
|
|
| |
| |
|
Purchase assistance including vendor identification, drawing
up of equipment specifications, tender enquiry & tender
evaluation. |
| |
|
Stagewise inspection of equipments during fabrication/manufacture. |
| |
|
Supervision
of erection & commissioning of the plant & machinery. |
| |
|
Training of plant engineers & technicians in carrying out
sterile process operations. |
| |
|
Complete
assignments on turnkey basis for project execution of fermentation
plants, from process/technology selection, process development
& basic engineering right up to erection & commissioning
of the plant.
|
| |
|
Co-ordination
for productivity improvement between source(s) of technology
& operating personnel, implementation of productivity
improvement program at the laboratory or pilot plant scale,
scaling-up of results on commercial scale, & establishment
of productivity norms in the plant.
