Risk assessment for an aseptic filling line
Cleanrooms and clean air equipment should be classified according to ISO 14644-1:2015. The decision to monitor is based on observations and measurements according to a defined method and a plan to demonstrate the performance of a facility. The monitoring locations must be based on a formal risk analysis study and the results of the classification. The measurements are carried out at the locations where the potential [...]
Cleanroom-based process reliability & yield
The topic of this presentation is the influence of AMC on process safety and process yield. Current cleanrooms are designed with the best process flow in mind, with the main focus on meeting process window conditions, process tool serviceability and accessibility, logistically optimized paths between process steps, and cost and space optimization in building design. However, AMCs can significantly [...]
Laboratories as a real estate asset class
A new trend has recently emerged in the field of laboratory projects in Germany: Increasingly, "rental laboratories" or incubators are being set up by project developers for users who are usually not fixed. While this is already common practice in some European countries, laboratories in Germany have so far mainly been planned and created by the users themselves. The particular challenges for users [...]
Best Practice Cleanroom Monitoring System:
Best practice cleanroom monitoring system: What does implementation look like in practice? How is the system set up? How are the measuring devices installed in practice? What do processes such as alerting or reporting look like in practice? Experience a practical overview of the topic of monitoring. The basis for this is an implemented project, into which we provide exclusive insights.
Fundamentals and development trends of filter fan units (FFU)
The presentation deals with the basics of filtration in cleanroom technology. It discusses the structure of modern cleanrooms and presents possible designs of cleanrooms with filter fan units. The correct dimensioning of the FFU is the success criterion for high production reliability. Issues such as noise emissions, compliance with the required cleanroom classes and energy consumption have a major influence on successful [...]
Top down cleaning
Regular top-down cleaning is essential for the operation of a cleanroom. The presentation will therefore first explain what top-down cleaning is. Furthermore, the advantages, the necessity and the requirements for carrying out a top-down cleaning are explained.
Advantages of automation concepts in pharmaceutical applications
General overview of different automation concepts such as distributed and decentralized automation, on the one hand applications with control cabinets and the advantages of standardization, on the other hand the use of process valves with integrated pilot valve.

Single-use: the future of bioprocess technology?
According to surveys conducted by Reuters in 2022, more than three quarters of all respondents want to ban single-use plastic from their daily lives. In bioprocess engineering and pharmaceutical production, we are currently experiencing an opposite trend towards single-use technology. But is this development at all compatible with the concept of sustainability? This question is answered in more detail using the example of the "bioreactor" [...].
