2. Student should be able to;  IDENTIFY the unit procedures involved during the production process in bioprocess plant  PRACTICE how to register new components and editing the flowsheet of bioprocess plant  ARRANGE and LOCATE unit procedures and stream connections in the bioprocess plant flowsheet.

3. Session outline  Getting started  SuperPro Designer (SPD) interface  Flowsheet drawing and editing  Unit procedures initialisation  Simulation execution & result checking

4. Getting started

5. Process Operation Mode Process operation mode : BATCH vs CONTINUOUS Default annual operating time

6. SuperPro Designer Interface Maximise the flowsheet

7. SuperPro Designer Interface Horizontal drawing size : 2 pages

8. Some common icons Start a new worksheet Open an existing worksheet Cut / Copy / Paste Select mode Connect mode-stream connection Toolbar for drawing Solve-Run the simulation

9. Main unit procedure in SPD  Vessel Procedure Reactor Seed Reactor Fermentor Seed Fermentor Air-lift Fermentor  Continuous Reaction (Stoichiometric, kinetic, equilibrium) CSTR PFR Fermentor Seed Fermentor Environmental (aerobic, anaerobic, UV radiation)  Filtration Microfiltration Ultrafiltration RO Diafiltration Baghouse Air Filtration Plate & Frame Rotary vacuum  Distillation Flash Batch Continuous  Extraction Distillation Mixer-Settler Differential Centrifugal  Absorption  Homogenization High pressure Bead milling Nano milling  Sedimentation Decanting Clarification Thickening Oil Separation Flotation

10. Unit Procedure in SPD

11. Biochemical case study  Component registration  View component properties

12. Biochemical Case Study

13. Case Study 1  A batch reactor is utilised to produce component C from reactant A and B:  Component C is later separated from A and B by a batch plate &frame filter  Solvent used : Heptane (soluble for A and B but insoluble for C)  Task to be performed : Mass and energy balances Process Scheduling A + B C

14. Component registration ComponentDatabase Nitrogen, N 2 Default Oxygen, O 2 Default Water, H 2 O Default Heptane, C 7 H 16 Designer A New (user define) B New (user define) C New (used define)

15. Component registration Databanks in SuperPro Default component

24. Unit Procedures

25. Adding a process stream Single click Connect-mode Stream connection Select mode (tip: Press ESC button to terminate the stream drawing)

26. Deleting a stream Single left click on the stream/unit (turn into read) & press DELETE (on keyboard) Make sure the cursor is in “Select Mode” (ESC button)

27. Completing the flowsheet Single click Double click

28. Let’s draw our flowsheet before we proceed further……

29. Editing a stream elbow Make sure the cursor is in “Select Mode” (Esc button) Stream elbow Make sure the cursor is in “Select Mode” (ESC button)

31. Editing tag name of the stream

32. Changing the Stream ID Stream ID Change ID to S-101Heptane S-102A S-103B S-104Emission S-105Rxt out S-106Wash in S-107C S-108B+ Heptane S-109Wash out Let’s do changes before we proceed

33. Editing the style of a stream Change Stream thickness: 2pt Change stream colour: brown

34. Changing the stream title and style StreamColourThickness HeptaneBrown2 points ABrown2 points BBrown2 points EmissionGreen1 points Rxt out Brown2 points Wash inBlue1 points CBrown2 points B + HeptaneBrown2 ponts Wash outBlue1 points (Q: is there a faster way to do so?) Same style

35. Pickup style from “Heptane”

36. Apply style to another stream Press Ctrl button to select multiple streams

37. Complete the style editing for the rest of the streams…

38. Editing the style of the icon Apply the same pick-up & apply to change the style of the filter Icon colour : blue Description tag text; Font 10, bold, maroon
