Location & approach

By Car

The campus of the Technical University of Dortmund is located near the freeway junction Dortmund West, where the Sauerland line A45 crosses the Ruhr expressway B1/A40. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. The university is signposted at both exits.

By bus and train

The "Dortmund Universität" S-Bahn station is located directly on the North Campus. From there, the S-Bahn line S1 runs every 15 or 30 minutes to Dortmund main station and in the opposite direction to Düsseldorf main station via Bochum, Essen and Duisburg. In addition, the university can be reached by bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr Transport Association, and DSW21 also offer an interactive route network map.

The H-Bahn

One of the landmarks of the TU Dortmund is the H-Bahn. Line 1 runs every 10 minutes between Dortmund Eichlinghofen and the Technology Center via Campus South and Dortmund University S, while Line 2 commutes every 5 minutes between Campus North and Campus South. It covers this distance in two minutes.

By Airplane

From Dortmund Airport, the AirportExpress takes just over 20 minutes to Dortmund's main train station, and from there, the S-Bahn takes you to the university. A wider range of international flight connections is offered by Düsseldorf Airport, about 60 kilometers away, which can be reached directly by S-Bahn from the university's train station.

Lecture

Bioprocesssimulation

Type	Lecture (1 SWS) + Exercise (2 SWS)
Credits	3.5
Rhythm	Summer term
Bachelor / Master	Master
Audience	CIW, BIW, PSE
Language	English
LSF number	061082
Moodle Room	Moodle Kurs

Course Content

The course “Bioprocess Simulation” focuses on the basic principles of process design and of the simulation of biotechnological processes with INOSIM Professional software. This means particularly the transfer of process steps into event driven recipes and recipe modules as well as the generation and integration of models of unit operations into the simulation via Visual Basic.

In addition the evaluation of simulation results like Gantt-Charts, mass- and energy balances is content of the course as well as the simulation of statistical fluctuations, failures and maintenance procedures and the performance of statistical analysis.

Aquired Competences

The students will learn how to use the heuristic-numeric approach for the development of biotechnological processes. They will be able to implement and simulate biotechnological processes within the simulation environment INOSIM Professional.

Moreover, they can analyze the process with the help of the simulation results, like Gantt-Charts, mass- and energy balances. Additionally they will be able to simulate statistical fluctuations, failures and maintenance procedures and to evaluate their influences on the production process.

Further Details

Exam	Written - 120 min
Preliminaries	-
Literature	The slides of the course and any additional materials such as literature lists and website recommendations will be published in the virtual workrooms in Moodle provided for this purpose. Details will be announced at the beginning of the course.
