Process Intensification via End-to-End Continuous Manufacturing of Atorvastatin Calcium Using an Integrated, Modular Reaction-Crystallization-Spherical Agglomeration-Filtration-Drying Process
23 Jul 2024 | Contributor(s):: Parvaresh, Rojan, Nagy, Zoltan K.
Continuous manufacturing can show potential benefits over batch processing in lower turnaround times and smaller footprint in addition to higher productivity, adaptability, and consistent product quality. Although these possible benefits exist, there are also challenges in integrating the various...

Towards Continuous Primary Manufacturing Processes-Particle Design through Combined Crystallization and Particle Isolation
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Steenweg, C, Kufner, ACHabicht, J, Wohlgemuth, K
Integrated continuous manufacturing processes of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) provide key benefits concerning product quality control, scale-up capability, and a reduced time-to-market. Thereby, the crystallization step, which is used in approximately 90% of API productions, mainly...

A Novel Integrated Workflow for Isolation Solvent Selection Using Prediction and Modeling
09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Ottoboni, S, Wareham, BVassileiou, A, Robertson, M, Brown, CJ, Johnston, B, Price, CJ
A predictive tool was developed to aid process design and to rationally select optimal solvents for isolation of active pharmaceutical ingredients. The objective was to minimize the experimental work required to design a purification process by (i) starting from a rationally selected...
