The Network Bio-PAT, which started its work on July 01, 2019 is a cooperation network in the field of bioanalytics and bioprocess control for improved bioprocess characterization for different applications: Industrial biotechnology, pharma/medical biotechnology, food technology/nutrition, environmental technology and bioenergy.

The network aims to connect the applicants and producers/suppliers of process analytical technologies (PAT) for bioprocesses for a more efficient and faster development of these technologies. For this, an interdisciplinary approach and bundling different competencies (amongst others sensor technology & bioprocess monitoring, reactor design, (Micro-)electronics as well as IT & software) are essential.

ABS is a network for analysis soutions in bio process analytics. The network develops cross-divisional analysis solutions for monitoring and regulation of biotechnological fermentation and cell culture processes. Process sensors from different manufacturers measure important process parameters in real-time and all data are collected in real-time using a bioprocess software. In that way bioprocesses can be documented and observed. Undesireable conditions can be discovered very quickly and processes can be run under optimal conditions. ABS Analytical Bioprocess Solutions – Your network of PAT sensor specialists functions as a competence cluster for bio process analysis where members can combine their products and developments to work out cross company solutions for customers.

The Fachverband Biogas e.V. unites operators, manufacturers and planners of biogas plants, representatives from science and research as well as interested parties throughout Germany. Since its foundation in 1992, the association has developed into Europe's strongest organization in the field of biogas with more than 4,700 members. The Fachverband Biogas e.V. advocates the increased use of biogas technology through intensive political lobbying at the federal and state level. In addition, the association promotes the exchange of experience and information in the biogas sector.

The aim of the work of the Biogas Association is to ensure a secure, sustainable, decentralized energy supply adapted to regional contexts with positive environmental effects through the expansion of site-adapted biogas production and use. The promotion of circular economy, sustainable management and regional value chains are essential elements of this goal.

TRACE Analytics GmbH is one of the leading manufacturers of analysis devices for online monitoring of biotechnological cultivation processes in lab and industrial routines. The devices are robust and maintenance-friendly, measuring and monitoring continuously in complex fermentation processes for industrial pharmaceutical production, delivering data for process regulation.  

The VH Berlin e.V. was founded in 1924 as an association for joint applied research for German baker’s yeast manufacturers and developed into a specialised service provider for the international yeast industry.

As a neutral, third party test lab, they support yeast manufacturers striving to achieve reliable quality of baker’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and products derived from it.

The participating companies are supported by consultants who, together with the responsible company employees, examine the company for savings and sustainability potentials. This always results in numerous measures that are gradually implemented by the companies. In addition to the site inspections, eight network meetings are held in which the company representatives can deepen their environmental know-how and intensively exchange information with the other participants on specialist topics. ÖKOPROFIT® has been promoted by the MULNV in NRW since 2000. The lead district Recklinghausen uses ZIRE funds for the implementation and is supported in the project by the cities of Datteln, Dorsten, Haltern am See, Herten, Marl, Oer-Erkenschwick, Recklinghausen, and Waltrop. The Münster Handwerkskammer, Gelsenwasser and the Effizienz-Agentur NRW complete the project's steering committee. In NRW, a total of over 2,000 companies in NRW have already been certified under ÖKOPROFIT®. The implementing consulting company is B.A.U.M. Consult GmbH Hamm, which has been implementing ÖKOPROFIT® projects in NRW since the beginning.
