OVERVIEW OF BIOSEPARATIONS
• Up to 90% of new product cost is in downstream processing.
• More than 60% of the cost of third and fourth generation antibiotics is in purification.
Bioseparations are elaborate and expensive.
For recombinant DNA fermentation products, downstream processing can account for 80 to 90% of the overall processing cost.
BIOSEPARATION COST
4
To improve the design of bioseparations, the following
questions should be answered:
(1) What is the value of the product?
(2) What is an acceptable product quality?
(3) Where is the product in each process stream?
(4) Where are the impurities in each process stream?
(5) What are the unusual physicochemical properties of
the product and the principal impurities?
(6) What are the economics of various alternative
separations?
BIOPRODUCTS
BIOPRODUCTS

Bioproducts can be broadly classified into three categories:
small molecules, large molecules, and particulate products.
There are three corresponding separation procedures for
purifying them.

(1) Separation of insolubles
* Objectives: remove or collect cells, cell debris, or
other particulates
* Typical operations: filtration, centrifugation
* Relatively little product concentration or
improvement of product quality occurs.
Most bioseparations have four similar steps:
9
Most bioseparations have four similar steps (2/3):
(1) Separation of insolubles
(2) Isolation of products
* Objectives: remove materials of widely divergent
properties compared to the desired product
* Typical operations: extraction, adsorption,
ultrafiltration, precipitation
* Appreciable concentration and product quality
increases usually occur.
10
Most bioseparations have four similar steps (3/3):
(1) Separation of insolubles
(2) Isolation of products
(3) Purification
* Objectives: remove impurities of similar chemical
functionality and physical properties
* Typical operations: chromatography, affinity
methods, fractional precipitation, electrophoresis
(4) Polishing
* Objectives: remove liquids
* Typical operations: drying, crystallization (not
always possible)

Bioseparation Technique
• According to product characteristic
• Considering selectivity and productivity
• Selectivity: main product/byproduct
• Productivity: main product/time
Bioseparation Technique
• Low selectivity-high productivity
• Cell disruption
• Precipitation
• Centrifugation
• Extraction
• Leaching
• Filtration (+micro, ultra)
• Adsorption
• High selectivity-low productivity
• Ultracentrifugation
• Chromatography
• Affinity separation
• electrophoresis
