Annual Report 201
22 / 56
22 at dtu chemical engineering we have many years of experience teaching good manufacturing
practice
or ?gmp? to students. this year, we added a continuing education course to our programme portfolio. the new gmp course has been adapted to companies in the pharma and food industry and combines theoretical aspects with practical experience using our pilot
plant
equipment. main activities of the pilot
plant
?centre for experimental
process
and equipment design: research and teaching focused on experimental work with large-scale equipment and
process
es. these activities are conducted with a strong focus on industrial
practice
. as a result the main activities include unit operations, reaction engineering,
process
control,
process
and
plant
design, instru- mentation, automation, and industrial measuring technology, scale-up and scale-down as well as batch versus continuous
process
es. new focus areas are fermentation mainly from a
process
point of view and particle technology. current projects the project portfolio of the pilot
plant
research centre currently includes, for instance, microbial conversion of slaughterhouse waste, syngas fermenta- tion, and downstream
process
ing of the liquids products, ammonia enhanced biogas production, along with fermentation experiments for the new bio-tech cluster biopro and research on flowability of bulk solids and coating of particles. technical competences: ? designing and building large-scale
plant
s (engineering, construction) ? unit operations (theory and
practice
) ? industrial chemical
process
es (designing the entire
process
) ? operational experience, solving practical
process
problems ? project management ?
