Granutools will attend IFPAC: International Foundation Process Analytical Chemistry

Granutools is thrilled to announce our participation in IFPAC-2024, an essential event for Process Analytical TechnologyTaking place from March 3-6, 2024, at the Bethesda North Marriot in Maryland, this in-person gathering provides a unique platform for industry leaders to discuss the latest trends and technologies in PAT, QbD, and more.

IFPAC has been a pivotal forum since 1987, bringing together professionals from pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, chemicals, and other related industries. Granutools is eager to engage in insightful discussions, share our expertise, and stay updated on the forefront of Process Analytical Technology.

Join us at IFPAC-2024 for a collaborative exploration of industry advancements.

Presentation: Understanding the relation between permeability and packing fraction

Marco LupoParticle Scientist at Granutools will present on Permeability and Packing Fraction at the upcoming event.

The focus is on understanding how permeability, a crucial powder property, impacts processes like die filling in tablet manufacturing. Using the GranuPack instrument and a permeability cell, the study analyses seven lactose powders commonly used in pharmaceuticals. The findings reveal a significant relationship between powder flowability and permeability evolution during densification. This insight has practical implications for developing improved formulations that enhance overall processability. Join Marco Lupo's presentation for valuable insights at the event.

Presentation: Adoption of continuous manufacturing: how to deal with electrostatic charges buildup?

Marco Lupo will also present on Managing Electrostatic Charges in Continuous Manufacturing Adoption. As continuous manufacturing gains traction in the pharmaceutical industry, understanding and predicting powder properties become crucial.

The presentation addresses the challenges posed by electrostatic charge buildup during continuous processing, impacting powder flow and leading to issues like sticking and clogging. Through case studies, the presentation demonstrates how tribocharging evaluation with the GranuCharge - a novel method for evaluating the electrostatic charge buildup propensity of powders - enables the prediction of charge buildup in the manufacturing process. Attendees will gain valuable insights into effectively addressing electrostatic charges in continuous manufacturing for optimized formulations and product specifications alignment.
