Our digital, interactive, and live workshop #7! Giving you practical insights from the comfort of your home-office or workplace.
This newly created workshop fulfills the increasing demand of experts and operators in the industry when it comes to understanding and optimizing of their solid dose manufacturing processes. This workshop is the perfect investment for those who wish to acquire a deeper knowledge of the Fluidized Bed Technology.
The course covers standard and sophisticated technologies for the relevant solid dose manufacturing of drying, granulation, and agglomeration in the fluid bed processor by combining theory, hands-on training, and demonstrations.
At the end, the attendees will take with them an enhanced knowledge and also some practical rules to be able to improve their daily work-tasks. All chapters will be recorded, the presentation material will be made available electronically.
Typically, operators, formulators, product designers, R&D scientists, process engineers, and researchers from the pharmaceutical, food, fine-chemicals, and related industries will get the most out of this workshop.
However, the workshop is also perfectly suitable for those who are looking for a detailed overview of processing technologies in batch operating fluid-bed technology in a short period of time.
How does findings in science can be applied to real fluid bed processing problems?
How can the spraying in a fluid bed processing influence the properties of the final product?
Which set-up is best for achieving the best results for my product?
A fluid bed processor is a perfect solution to achieve homogenous particle properties, perfect mixing, and efficient heat transfer. Therefore, it is logic, to find fluid beds for all types of particle engineering. In this workshop we will focus on the improvement of flowability, compressibility, and reduction of undesired dusty fractions of the final product.
Industrial pharmacists and pharmaceutical engineers have explored stating norms for process engineering and equipment design. But how well do they work for the development and manufacturing pharmacists, especially those involved in the technology transfer?
There is an increasing demand on improved quality and efficiency especially for the processing of consistently shaped and “performing” solids (granules, pellets, powders, etc.). Additionally, it is absolutely necessary to know and understand the processing dynamics of powders, granules, pellets and the like, and to find the most effective processing solutions which deliver consistent product properties.
This workshop is grounded in practical experience gained across numerous industrial sectors by a range of speakers from academia, equipment manufacturers and end users. The scientific principles of fluid bed operation will be added by a number of practical demonstrations which show the theory in practice.
