See what's happening inside your reactor

Our bioreactor simulation tool will provide you with unique insights.  A high-performance, cloud based simulation tool tailored for gassed and stirred bioreactors. Easy to use for everyone.

Pharmaceutical & Chemical Companies

Lower your scale-up costs

Computational fluid dynamics can reduce the number of tests from 10–15 to 2–3, which typically cost € 40.000 to 80.000 per run [Delvigne et al. 2017].
You can realize those cost savings without the need of expensive simulation experts or computer hardware.

Regulatory affairs

Validate your operating range and reactor design

Due to the cloud computing approach parallel simulations covering entire geometrical or operational parameter ranges can be started easily.  The most recent computer hardware is at your disposal, secured by the Kaleidosim framework to protect your company secrets.

Production

Troubleshoot faster and get a deeper process understanding

Due to the use of the latest generation of graphic cards the simulation results are usually available on the same day to support you in the search for root causes. The simulation results give you a deep insight in the processes inside your reactor.

Equipment manufacturers

Let your customers simulate

Differentiate yourself from your competitors. As an equipment manufacturer, we can provide a simulation portal with your corporate branding. Customers can choose from your reactor portfolio and run their individual tests. You can use the access to the portal as a unique selling proposition for your reactors.

Production

Do virtual process transfers

Compare the conditions your microorganisms experience virtually. Optimize operating conditions before the first batch is produced.
