Technology up-date: Safety 1st - with new 16 bar
High Shear Granulators from Aeromatic-Fielder™ and
Collette™
Extensive safety testing confirms pressure
enhancement effects and identifies safe design limits for integrated
granulation and drying systems. GEA Pharma Systems (formerly known as Niro
Pharma Systems) in conjunction with FSA, the safety specialist centre in
Germany, have carried out an extensive test program involving over 100 test
explosions. This research has shown conclusively that should an explosion occur
during the transfer operation in an integrated granulation and drying system
where a granulator is connected directly to a fluid bed dryer without an
explosion isolation valve then, the secondary explosion pressures in the
granulator can be significantly higher than in the fluid bed. These tests have
enabled GEA Pharma Systems to gain full EC type approval for a range of
pressure shock resistant integrated systems and 16 bar pressure shock resistant
high shear granulators. The tests were carried out with hybrid mixtures which
behave in the same way as pharmaceutical products containing organic solvents
and showed that that the final explosion pressure in the granulator is
dependent on the volumes of the two vessels and that the length and diameter of
the interconnecting duct is critical in ensuring that the pressure remains
within safe limits ... Read

Deutsch: Die neue Granulierlinie der
Solida-Produktion Roche Basel
Als Ersatz für ältere
Prozessanlagen gaben die Fachleute der Solida-Produktion (Herstellung
fester Arzneiformen im Bereich Galenik) im Herbst 2003 eine neue
Granulierlinie in Auftrag, die den heutigen Anforderungen entspricht. Der
Hauptapparat, bestehend aus einem mehr als sechs Meter hohen
Wirbelschichttrockner, wurde Ende Juli vergangenen Jahres mittels eines
Lastwagenkrans ins zweite Geschoss des Pharmagebäudes 27 eingebracht.
(Vergleiche Roche Nachrichten 2004/8, Seite 16.) In der Folge wurde die gesamte
Anlage, die zwei Stockwerke beansprucht, durch die verschiedenen Lieferanten,
Spezialisten und Monteure Schritt für Schritt installiert, überprüft und
qualifiziert ... Read more and
