Why it matters
Distillation plays an important role in the pharmaceutical industry where single stage batch distillations are frequently utilized. Distillations are run for a variety of objectives: separation\, solvent swap\, drying from water\, purification from volatile or non-volatile impurities and crystallization. Understanding distillation and de-risking this operation during development and commercial scaling is critical in API manufacturing
Who is it for
This module is relevant to all employees involved in API production\, development of API processes and those in quality assurance functions.
