Most of the significant developments of medicines have occurred in the last 70 years, and by a process of trial and error many plants and other substances have been used by man to produce certain pharmalogical effects. This book is a general introduction aimed at all those involved in the engineering stages required for the manufacture of the active ingredient and its dosage forms. It also covers the design of Quality Control Laboratories, process development facilities and pilot plants, as these all play a role in ensuring medicines are of an appropriate quality and have their own special pro

Great changes have taken place in the study of mixing in the fifteen years since the first Mixing conference in the series. The gap between theoretical predictions and experimental data is closing. Increased computer power makes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses possible and new imaging techniques illuminate mixing flows.IChemE, the Institution of Chemical Engineers, is the center for chemical, biochemical and process engineering professionals worldwide.

As the manufacture of new toxic pharmaceutical products grows, it is necessary to handle more compounds of increasing toxicity in the workplace. For this reason, and because the expectation of better employee protection and improved working procedures is growing, there is an increasing demand for better containment systems and a better understanding of those systems. The selection of a particular containment system for a specific containment operation can be a difficult decision, due to the extensive choice of technology available. Providing a structured approach to the selection process, this

The sixteenth in the series of symposia run by the Institution of Chemical Engineers North West Branch since 1960. Hazards XVI provides a forum for new approaches, research and developments in the protection of people, plant and the environment. It brings together international experts and practitioners from the fields of both process safety and environmental protection, and is directed at identifying areas where common solutions can be found or where there are conflicting priorities. The book is accompanied by a fully-searchable CD-ROM.IChemE, the Institution of Chemical Engineers, is the cen

This book provides technical guidance to study the propagation of toxic or flammable clouds resulting from an emission in order to evaluate their consequences, eg for risk assessment purposes. Based on the four parameters of dispersion development (physical properties, chemical properties, source terms, and atmospheric situation) the book explores the mathematical models (ranging from Gaussian to three-dimensional) which allow adequate assessment of risk. Tracing, both on site and on a model, is dealt with, as is the presentation and interpretation of results.IChemE, the Institution of Chemica
