PAT offers process understanding and optimisation

With the endorsement of Process Analytical Technology (PAT) by the FDA, the implementation of PAT offers numerous ways to help you further understand and optimise your processes

Through a combination of technological advances and the endorsement of Process Analytical Technology (PAT) by the FDA, the implementation of PAT is bringing real-life benefits and improvements to many chemical and pharmaceutical processes.

Whether you work in process optimisation, technology transfer or full scale production, in-situ real-time analytical technology offers numerous ways to help you further understand and optimise your processes.

These include the following.

* Fingerprint batch for technical transfer.

* Control upstream variables to adjust product quality.

* Predict and optimise downstream product or process performance.

* Monitor and control batch consistency.

* Track concentration, yield and purity in real-time.

* Determine extent of reaction, endpoint and variances.

* Optimise cycle times.

By using ReactIR in-situ reaction analysis and particle system characterisation technology from Mettler Toledo, it is possible to track all these parameters - real-time - while eliminating the need to take grab samples from a reactor or crystalliser.
