- Please briefly explain why it is necessary and/or desirable to add this course: xx
- What is the need or demand for this course? (Indicate if this course is part of a required sequence in the major.) What other programs would this course service? xx
- Has this course been offered as Selected Topics/Experimental Topics course? If yes, how many times? xx
- What qualifications for training and/or experience are necessary to teach this course? (List minimum qualifications for the instructor.) xx
- Objectives: 1) Understand the underlying physical and biological properties important to bioseparations, including mathematical modeling2) Understand the analysis and design of contemporary bioseparation processes, including crystallization, solvent extraction (liquid-liquid separation), filtration, chromatographic techniques, and emerging technologies3) Address basic application situations and their associated design parameters in pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and environmental systems.
- Learning Outcomes: Upon completion of the course, students should be able to:1) Understand the relevant physical and biological properties needed to develop a contemporary bioseparation process2) Explain crystallization/precipitation processes3) Explain in detail chromatographic separation techniques4) Work with size-based separation processes (filtration, etc.)5) Understand emerging bioseparation techniques6) Appreciate the extent of bioseparation applications in areas such as pharmaceutical, food, chemical, biomedical, and environmental.7) Access relevant information sources
- Major Topics: 1) Review of separation science foundations (equilibrium, stage-wise calculations, physical property issues, etc.)2) Cell disruption techniques3) Size-based separations (filtration, centrifugation, etc.)4) Crystallization, precipitation, and related technologies5) Chromatographic techniques6) Liquid-liquid separations7) Electrophoresis and related techniques8) Emerging technologies9) Economic analysis10) Regulatory issues, equipment validation, and related topics
