Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

• Developed a feedforward rolling horizon control system for ICB. • Dynamic optimization formulation that includes discrete decisions. • MINLP manipulates chromatography stage decisions and loading flow rate. • Dynamic harvest case studies demonstrate the controller’s capabilities. Integrated continuous bioprocesses (ICBs) offer significant advantages for biotherapeutic manufacturing, including enhanced efficiency, reduced costs, and improved product accessibility. However, the adoption of ICBs is hindered by challenges in maintaining robust operation of the downstream processes amidst upstream variability. This study presents a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) formulation for adaptive scheduling and control of a single-column bind-elute chromatography process that is integrated with a time-varying bioreactor harvest and a surge vessel. The control system leverages dynamic models, a rolling horizon implementation and a feedforward harvest forecast to optimize the chromatography loading flow rate and duration while ensuring compliance with critical process constraints. Case studies demonstrate the controller's ability to adapt the chromatography process and maintain robust operation under static and dynamic upstream harvest conditions. This framework represents a significant step toward the broader adoption of ICBs by utilizing the surge vessel as a degree of freedom to implement a variable loading flow rate strategy.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
