Description

Whether you are chemist, chemical engineer, QA or safety specialist, your aims when scaling up your process are often the same:

Achieving greater process efficiency, yield and throughput.
Eliminating unsafe and non-green processes and materials.
Decreasing the costs and number of steps involved.

Since the first conference in 1994, The Scale-Up of Chemical Processes has become the major international forum for the discussion of all these aspects of scale-up and more in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical and allied fields.

Key speakers presenting case studies and examples of some of the pitfalls and problems they encountered and how they overcame them.

With unparalleled networking opportunities, this broad-based conference is the best place to learn about and discuss the latest novel ideas and techniques with the key people in the industry.

Key Topics will include: QbD, DoE and CSTRs.

Who Should Attend?

  • Process Development & Production Chemists
  • Chemical Engineers in industry
  • Technical Managers
  • Heads of Departments & Team Leaders
  • Quality Assurance Personnel
  • Safety Specialists
