Feeding the Granulation Process Process flow interfaces for the granulation area The effective and safe transfer of both excipients and active ingredients is essential. A number of options are available: Gravity feeding: Gravity loading through a discharge station from above or via a post hoist are ideal solutions, ensuring containment and simplicity of cleaning. API discharge vessels can be used to deliver more potent formulations directly into the granulator. Vacuum feeding: When room height is a limiting factor, a contained vacuum station can be used: incorporating containment valves...
