Learning Outcomes and Competencies
Students will
be able to transfer the principles of laboratory analytics to process; analytics (continuous real-time acquisition, signal conversion)
be able to set up, characterise, calibrate and apply a measurement chain;
be able to determine and document measurement results, including the measurement uncertainties contained therein;
become familiar with the online measurands important in bioprocesses (pH, pO2, conductivity, glucose) and be able to assess their relevance in biotechnological applications;
be able to use typical sensors for bioprocesses (e.g. potentiometry, amperometry, optical sensors, conductive LF measurement) and infer their requirements for the measurement technology;
be able to commission, configure, operate and maintain the sensors and the associated measurement technology as well as evaluate and correctly document the measurement data.
