Development of formulations, evaluation and characterization of emulsions (complex fluids)

Complex fluids generally correspond to multiphase systems (suspensions, emulsions, gels and foams) whose main characteristic is their microheterogeneity, despite their apparent homogeneity on a macroscopic scale. Microheterogeneity, associated to a complex rheology, may result in incompatibility of certain components, which, over time, evolve into macroscopic alterations of the system (phase Read more…

Special tests on plastics, rubber and composites

In industrial plants, polymers and copolymers can be mixed to obtain polymer blends. When miscible, the properties of the blends derive from the properties of the individual polymers, although a synergistic action may occur. Depending on the application, several blends of different compositions can be prepared, resulting in polymers with Read more…

Development of plastic recycling processes

Plastic materials have become a constant presence in human life, mainly in disposable materials such as bottles, sacks, bags, cups and packaging. These materials must be discarded in an environmentally correctly way, since burning them releases carbon from the plastic into the atmosphere. Therefore, recycling combines a more environmentally suitable Read more…

Development of vaccines and biopharmaceutical products

Vaccines and biopharmaceutical products are typically proteins, viruses or viral particles which require complex production systems, in most cases involving application of recombinant DNA technology. Some of these bioproducts, which are less complex in terms of post-transcription transformation (glycolyation, phosphorylation, disulphate bridges, and amidation, etc.) can be produced in yeasts Read more…

Utilizing and adding value to industrial or agricultural residues to generate bioproducts

Growing concern about the environment has increased commercial interest in recycling and reusing materials. Therefore, the use of residues to generate products of higher added value is of interest, since it combines a solution for their treatment with valorization of these residues. IPT is currently developing bioprocesses aimed at adding Read more…

Bioreactor design

Bioreactor operation is based on the process kinetics and the fluid dynamics of the system. To control the process kinetics, methodologies are required to measure the concentration of the variables of state, such as biomass produced, substrate consumption, and products formed during the process. For this control, IPT is equipped Read more…

Scale increase of biotechnological processes and follow-up of implementation

Increase of scale means to reproduce in larger size equipment the results obtained successfully on a smaller scale. The development of processes in bioreactors is generally carried out on three scales: bench scale, in which basic procedures and process parameters are developed; pilot scale, in which the operating conditions are Read more…
