Once produced, APIs must be carefully packaged and transported to pharmaceutical companies for formulation into final drug products. Regulatory compliance continues to be critical in this phase, with clear documentation and traceability necessary to ensure the integrity of the API throughout the distribution process.
Chillers use water to absorb heat from the process or environment and then reject that heat to the atmosphere. This operation creates ideal conditions for scale formation and corrosion, which can result from the water’s mineral content and temperature fluctuations. Without effective treatment, scale can settle on heat exchanger surfaces, diminishing heat transfer efficiency and leading to higher energy costs. Similarly, corrosion can damage metal components, eventually causing leaks and system failures.
