New Flow Processes for Sustainable Pharma Manufacturing Live Webinar: May 20, 2010 11:00 a.m. EDT • 10:00 a.m. CDT • 9:00 a.m. MDT • 8:00 a.m. PDT Overview: In order to accomplish the green chemistry mission, dramatic changes are required in process industries. Manufacturing in the pharmaceutical industry currently produces more than 25 Kg of waste for every kilogram of product. Continuous flow technologies enable new processes called “Flash Chemistry” that could otherwise never be performed under batch conditions. At the heart of the technology are microreactors, which are leading to new mini-plants and creating the “Factories of the Future.” The results of such a transformation are more sustainable, greener, and economical processes for producing a wide range of pharmaceuticals.
Your hosts for this webinar will be: Norbert Kockmann, Dr.-Ing. Senior Scientist Microreactor Technology Continuous Flow Processes Lonza C. Oliver Kappe, Prof., Ph.D. Assoc. Prof. of Organic Chemistry & Dir., Christian Doppler Lab for Microwave Chemistry University of Graz
