Figure 2: Simplified, simulation model to achieve bio-defense production targets within a 12 week period. Production model shows the number kg produced within a three month time frame. Production output is displayed above each condition. This estimation model assumes eight dedicated production reactors of any given size, production culture durations of 13 days, with a 1-day turnaround, resulting in a 2-week cycle time, and 70% downstream yield. Color scheme is as follows; does not meet any Phase objective, Achieves Phase I, Achieves Phase II, Achieves Phase III.
