Project
Digital twins for process analysis, optimization and control Abstract
Qubicon supports two projects at the CHASE Competence Center. First, our software is applied by the Bioprocess Technology research group headed by Prof. Dr. Christoph Herwig at the Technical University of Vienna. In this project, Qubicon is used as a tool to link real-time process data with a digital twin for optimized refolding of recombinant proteins derived from E.coli inclusion body processes.

Project
Better insight into beer brewing processes Abstract
At the Institute for Chemical Technology of Organic Materials at Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Qubicon enables quality-based monitoring and provides flexible control strategies for beer brewing processes. This project aims to provide a deeper understanding of microbial beer fermentation processes exposed to tailored conditions (e.g., temperature and pH) and monitors process-relevant performance indicators.

Project
End2End – Integrated Continuous Bio-Manufacturing Abstract
Integrated Continuous Bio-Manufacturing (ICB) is widely viewed as one of the most promising technologies addressing the challenges of increased costs and competitive pressure across a variety of bioprocessing fields. In the End2End R&D project, from Bilfinger Life Science and the University of Natural Resources and Life Science (BOKU) in Vienna, Qubicon is used to provide a central data management solution.
