How to make your water system work for you, not the other way round!
There's an old saying in the industry. If you ask six engineers to design a pharmaceutical water system, you'll end up (probably after a heated debate) with seven different answers. But why?
Trevor Honeyman shares how to design a pharmaceutical water system - and get it right
Controlling Populations
Sterilisation is a critical process in the Pharmaceutical industry, controlling microbial populations. Are you fluent in key issues:
- What causes wet loads for porous load sterilisation?
- What is biological indicator D-Value determination?
- What acceptance criteria do I apply for fluids load sterilisation?
- What are the EP/USP requirements for biological indicators?
- Will proposed changes to Annex 1 for sterilisation impact my operations?
- How do I rationalise/justify the choice of worst case loads for validation?
Join our accessible training in the UK & Ireland to answer these questions and more:
