Beyond Process Simulation: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for the CPI and Pharmaceutical Industry

The chemical process industry faces many challenges such as the rising costs of raw material and the need to develop processes and innovative products that meet safety regulation and performance demands. In addition, increased patent expiry, diversification and global competition drives the pharmaceutical industry towards continuous manufacturing, e.g. for the API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) process.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been identified as a key enabling technology in finding solutions to many of these challenges. Please join us for a workshop coming to Quincy, MA on December 14th which covers the benefits of applying CFD in the chemical process and pharmaceutical industry. A group of guest speakers will share their experiences and discuss applications in the industry.

A CFD specialist will demonstrate how you can:

• Resolve local effects of flow and heat transfer on mass transfer and chemical reactions not fully answered by process simulation
• Apply flow-coupled DEM (Discrete Element Model) technology to a tablet coating model in the API process
• Apply CFD for single and multiphase problems, adding valuable scientific insight and decision-making criteria to technical solutions.
