Written by recognized experts and peer reviewed for accuracy, all chapters include references to supplemental resources and numerous illustrations.

The Handbook of Membrane Separations: Chemical, Pharmaceutical, and Biotechnological Applications provides detailed information on membrane separation technologies as they have evolved over the past decades. To provide a basic understanding of membrane technology, this book documents the developments dealing with these technologies. It explores chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing and biotechnological applications of membrane processes ranging from selective separation to solvent and material recovery. This text also presents in-depth knowledge of membrane separation mechanisms, transport models, membrane permeability computations, membrane types and modules, as well as membrane reactors.

Filtration and Purification in the Biopharmaceutical Industry, First Edition greatly expands its focus with extensive new material on the critical role of purification and the significant advances in filtration science and technology. This new edition provides state-of-the-science information on all aspects of filtration and purification, in

It Is Well Known That The Applications Of Unit Operations Like Heat Transfer, Evaporation, Extraction, Mixing, Filtration And A Host Of Others Are Quite Common In The Pharmaceutical Industry, Be It In The Production Of Synthetic Drugs, Biological And Microbiological Products Or In The Manufacture Of Pharmaceutical Formulations. As Such Anyone Who Is To Look After These Manufacturing Operations Must Be Quite Knowledgeable With The Theoretical And Equipment Aspects Involved In The Relevant Unit Operations.Since A Major Involvement Of The Pharmacy Graduates Lies In The Numerous Manufacturing Operations Mentioned Above, It Is Very Much Necessary That The Subject Is Taught With A Pharmacy Orientation. There Is No Book So Far Which Has Achieved This. The Existing Books On Unit Operations Give Extensive Theory And Also Deal With A Lot Of Equipment Not Employed In The Pharmaceutical Industry. Due To A Lack Of A Pharmacy-Oriented Book In This Area, The Students And The Teachers Are Facing Difficulties In Many Ways.The Present Book Is The First One Of Its Kind On Pharmaceutical Engineering. The Special Features Of This Book Are As Follows: It Includes Theoretical And Equipment Aspects Relevant To Thepharmaceutical Industry And That Too To The Extent Needed For Pharmacy Graduates And Examples From Pharmaceutical Industry Are Quoted Extensively; Solutions To A Number Of Simpler Numerical Problems Are Given. At The End Of Each Chapter, A Large Number Of Questions, Both Theoretical And Numerical, Are Given. There Is Therefore No Doubt That The Book Will Be Of Great Use Not Only To The Students But Also To The Teachers In The Subject In India And Abroad As Well.

This comprehensive book encompasses various facets of sterile product development. Key concepts relevant to the successful development of sterile products are illustrated through case studies and are covered under three sections in this book: • Formulation approaches that discuss a variety of dosage forms including protein therapeutics, lipid-based controlled delivery systems, PEGylated biotherapeutics, nasal dosage form, and vaccines • Process, container closure and delivery considerations including freeze-thaw process challenges, best practices for technology transfer to enable commercial product development, innovations and advancement in aseptic fill-finish operations, approaches to manufacturing lyophilized parenteral products, pen / auto-injector delivery devices, and associated container closure integrity testing hurdles for sterile product closures • Regulatory and quality aspects in the areas of particulate matter and appearance evaluation, sterile filtration, admixture compatibility considerations, sterilization process considerations, microbial contamination investigations and validation of rapid microbiological methods, and dry and moist heat sterilizers This book is a useful resource to scientists and researchers in both industry and academia, and it gives process and product development engineers insight into current industry practices and evolving regulatory expectations for sterile product development.
