Pall Life Sciences, a division of global filtration, separation and purification leader Pall Corporation, has announced that the Cadence Acoustic Separator has won the BioProcess International (BPI) Award for best downstream processing application. Celebrated bi-annually since 2012, the BPI Awards are hosted during the BioProcess International Conference in Boston, MA.
Pall Corporation (NYSE:PLL), a global leader in filtration, separation and purification, announced the signing of an exclusive license for acoustic wave separation (AWS), a disruptive technology from FloDesign Sonics (FDS) for cell culture clarification for both fed-batch and perfusion applications. The AWS technology enables very-high-efficiency continuous removal of the cells in a closed system without centrifugation, thereby streamlining a challenging step in the biologics manufacturing process within a small operating footprint. The technology will complement Pall's industry-leading STAXTM depth filtration products to enable continuous clarification of cell culture, enabling integration of the bioreactor with downstream processing.
When oil and gas are extracted from the earth, water also comes to the surface. Known as produced water, it contains naturally occurring hydrocarbons, salt, bacteria, radioactive material and other compounds, as well as any chemical additives used to ease extraction.
