CONTAINMENT The Hot Topic in Solid Dosage Form Production In the pharmaceutical industry, one term is becoming increasingly important: containment. It describes the process of containing a substance within a defined space, a method that is suitable for protecting operators and the environment in case of high toxicity and product reactivity. At the same time, containment prevents dust, gases or vapours from being released into the environment and contaminating the product. More than 60 percent of pharmaceutical products are produced as tablets, capsules, lozenges or similar solids. Especially...

Diagram for evaluating container size (viable with patented blending baffles) Filling grade from 20-85 % MC/MT 2000 MC/MT 1800 MC/MT 1600 CONTAINERS It is important to define the design of the IBC for every single containment project early on. The IBC can be used flexible in production process and must be filled, docked, undocked, washed etc. The container needs to be connected to every individual unit operation from dispensing to packaging under high containment conditions, and therefore is subject to many interfaces. Container size Blending volume (litre) L.B. Bohle offers several containers...

CASE STUDY Dry Granulation – BRC 100 Continuous dry granulation has been an established process in the pharmaceutical industry for decades and is not only used for moisture- or temperature-sensitive products. Unlike traditional wet granulation methods, this process does not require energy-intensive drying processes, eliminating the need for large investments in equipment and production facilities and lowering the cost per batch. Dry granulation is often the process of choice in particular for high-volume or moisturesensitive products. The BRC containment is proven through the typical BRC attributes....

CASE STUDY Laboratory Coater – BFC 5 A multinational corporation from Great Britain has entrusted L.B. Bohle with a very special task: Construction of a containment coater for research and development. Standard BFC 5 as a base The Laboratory Coater BFC 5, which is currently used successfully in product development and for small batches, served as the basis machine for the project. In a second step, L.B. Bohle configured the BFC as a high containment coater. A challenge was the installation of the entire technology in the smaller system. The engineers at L.B. Bohle adopted some elements from projects...
