Circular and bioprocess design in biotechnology
A blueprint of a bio-based process covers two things: living microbes and hardware. The best designs, from first sketch to scale-up, see them as one system. Hensen Biocircular Design specialises in integrating biology and bioprocess engineering. With experience in connecting lab research, modelling and process design, together we can take the next step in moving your project forward. Whether you need more insight into your microbe’s or process performance, guidance on development roadmaps or design scenarios built on your data: let’s meet at the drawing board!
About Anne Hensen
Bioprocess Engineer in Biotechnology (MSc, TU Delft)
I am a creative, social and passionate engineer, fascinated by the interplay of microbes and process design and a firm believer that bio-based processes are the key to a sustainable future. My preferred approach is combining lab experiments and mathematical modelling. To me, the beauty of modelling is that it gives biology and engineering shared language through mathematics. You can use them to explore ideas and investigate bottlenecks in an integrated system and plan your next tests with direction. After working in both industry R&D and academic research, I want to help others bridging the gap between innovation and implementation.
Due to my broad experience in the field, I can translate and connect many specialties. I performed experimental work in bioreactors and microbial physiology and know how to design tests with real-life conditions in mind. I can deploy models to aid in your process design and solve bottlenecks. There are so many great teams that each work on a piece towards a sustainable planet . My goals is to support as many as I can and together realise a bio-based, circular world.

Want to pull up a chair to the drawing board? Let’s have a chat and explore the possibilities. Whether you are at the first sketch or ready to turn your data into a process design, I’d love to think along at every step.
