What are the chemical engineering steps needed to make a virus vaccine?

By chemical engineering I mean, for example, crushing, centrifuge, addition of chemicals, selection of starter mix, growth medium, filtration.

I don’t know. I’ll leave that up to the experts. Often there are chicken eggs involved, I understand.

And very careful temperature control.
