Introduction In the pharmaceutical industry, water systems are vital for a range of processes, from formulation to cleaning and sterilization. The quality of water used must meet stringent standards to ensure product safety and efficacy. Filtration is one of the most critical steps in maintaining the purity of water systems. To verify the efficiency and reliability of these filters, integrity […]
Introduction Indeed, sustainable and high quality of air free form contaminant is crucial in the pharmaceutical company and underlines the requirement regarding the company’s products and employees. Heating Ventilation and Air conditioning better known as HVAC is a crucial factor in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities since controlled environment is critical to the entire process. Of all these components, the filters that […]
Introduction The pharmaceutical industry requires top levels of visibility to maintain goods quality and uphold employees’ welfare as well as meet stringent legal obligations. Among all the subsystems of a pharmaceutical HVAC system, bag filters are considered to be highly important for these strict air quality requirements. Within the context of bag filters, there exists the following subtypes of such […]
Introduction In the contemporary world, controlled environment known as indoor air quality (IAQ) has elicited so much attention in today’s world more so with concerns involving pollution. The best option on how IAQ in HVAC systems should be maintained is by the use of activated carbon filters. These filters not only filter out particulate matter but also filter out odours, […]
In the world of controlled environments, ensuring proper air cleanliness is vital. Cleanrooms are essential in industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, electronics manufacturing, and aerospace, where even the smallest airborne particles can compromise product integrity and safety. ISO 14644 is the globally recognized standard for cleanroom classification and management, with specific mandates for air changes per hour (ACH) to maintain […]
Maintaining a controlled environment is paramount in cleanroom operations across industries like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, electronics, and healthcare. One of the critical parameters for ensuring air cleanliness and sterility in cleanrooms is Air Changes Per Hour (ACH). This article explores ACH in detail, highlighting its significance, standards, calculation methods, and optimization strategies. What is Air Changes Per Hour (ACH)? Air Changes […]
Pharmaceutical sterile products are an essential cornerstone of modern medicine. These products are specifically designed to be free from viable microorganisms, ensuring they can be administered to patients without causing infections or adverse effects. The significance of these products cannot be overstated, as they play a crucial role in ensuring the safety and efficacy of therapeutic interventions, particularly for vulnerable […]
Panel filters are a common kind of pre-filter utilized in the pharmaceutical system of HVAC. They begin the air filtration process because they remove the largest particles from the passing of air to other layers of filtration. This paper gives detailed information of panel filters, its classification, standard requirements, advantages and disadvantages with detailed descriptions of its operation in pharmaceutical […]
Pharmaceutical industries are held to stringent regulatory and quality standards to ensure the safety and efficacy of their products. One of the critical components in these industries is the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system, which plays a pivotal role in maintaining cleanroom environments. A key part of these systems is the pre-filters, which ensure that large contaminants are […]
Ultra clean air environments are an essential requirement in most areas of the pharmaceutical industries for product quality and meeting regulatory requirements. Among the high efficiency filters that are employed in pharmaceutical HVAC systems, one can distinguish ULPA filter (Ultra-Low Penetration Air filter). Most ULPA filters are designed to capture the smallest particulate matter in the environment making it a […]
