  • Patent number: 11835501
    Abstract: Determining optimum operating binding capacity for a MCC process using one column, the process including N number of columns, comprises loading target product on a first column at a first residence time and/or flow rate; loading the product on the column at a second residence time and/or flow rate, the first residence time and/or flow rate being different than the second residence time and/or flow rate; generating a first breakthrough curve for the first residence time and/or flow rate and a second breakthrough curve for the second residence time and/or flow rate, wherein the first curve represents product breakthrough for the first column and the second curve represents product breakthrough for an Nth column; and using the curves to determine product loading capacity of the first column before product breakthrough at the Nth column; the product loading capacity of the first column equaling optimum operating binding capacity for the process.
