Abstract

ZHAW Wädenswil, a pioneer in single-use technology, and Zurich-based LEVITRONIX, the world leader in bearingless motor technology, are developing a novel centrifugal pump with support from the Commission for Technology and Innovation (CTI). By increasing process efficiency, the pump sets new standards in biopharmaceutical production.
