Abstract
This paper describes how pilot-scale verification trials have improved the accuracy of process models used in the simulation of a process fo r the recovery and purification of an intracellular enzyme, alcohol de hydrogenase (ADH) from packed yeast. The trials have highlighted the u nit operations where improvements in the models are required for impro ved accuracy. The effects of process perturbations are also used to ex amine the robustness of the predictive models.
