Pharmaceutical Production Facilities: Design and Applications considers the concepts and constraints that have to be considered in the design of small, medium and large scale production plants. The layout, along with the flow of materials and personnel through facilities are considered with reference to ensuring compliance with current good manufac

Designing, erection and commissioning of a pharmaceutical plant is a long drawn process. It needs basic understanding of pharmaceutical formulations and their logical and sequential processing. This whole process is tedious, time consuming and should have proper guidance in this regard. The book will provide such guidance which is a long felt need by the industry. Salient Features: - Pharmaceutical design aspects with sample layouts for all major formulations are discussed - All aspects related to project management, regulatory requirements, validation of facilities, HVAC and water system are discussed - A real handy book for all those who are involved in plant design, project management and facility and utilities validation in Pharmaceutical industry.

This title is a general introduction aimed at all those involved in the engineering stages required for the manufacturr of the active ingredient and its dosage forms.

On July 30-31, 2018, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop titled Continuous Manufacturing for the Modernization of Pharmaceutical Production. This workshop discussed the business and regulatory concerns associated with adopting continuous manufacturing techniques to produce biologics such as enzymes, monoclonal antibodies, and vaccines. The participants also discussed specific challenges for integration across the manufacturing system, including upstream and downstream processes, analytical techniques, and drug product development. The workshop addressed these challenges broadly across the biologics domain but focused particularly on drug categories of greatest FDA and industrial interest such as monoclonal antibodies and vaccines. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

This revised publication serves as a handy and current reference for professionals engaged in planning, designing, building, validating and maintaining modern cGMP pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and internationally. The new edition expands on facility planning, with a focus on the ever-growing need to modify existing legacy facilities, and on current trends in pharmaceutical manufacturing which include strategies for sustainability and LEED building ratings. All chapters have been re-examined with a fresh outlook on current good design practices.

Implementing Project Portfolio Management addresses the "how-tos" of portfolio management. It is designed for three primary audience groups: Business Executives, Portfolio Leaders and Practitioners, and Portfolio Thinkers. The authors provide insights on how to apply the performance management domains covered in the standard that are in practice today by introducing tools and templates into their discussion. Far-reaching in its impact on portfolio management practitioners, thinkers, stakeholders, and the wider project management community, this guide envisions the continued transformation of portfolio management with the changing needs of organizations and advances in technology.

This handbook features contributions from a team of expert authors representing the many disciplines within science, engineering, and technology that are involved in pharmaceutical manufacturing. They provide the information and tools you need to design, implement, operate, and troubleshoot a pharmaceutical manufacturing system. The editor, with more than thirty years' experience working with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, carefully reviewed all the chapters to ensure that each one is thorough, accurate, and clear.
