High Purity Process Engineering
ID: 719293
California, USA
WATER-TREATMENT FILTRATION PROCESS; CONTAMINATION CONTROL. Expert provides support in process development, start-up, monitoring, control and optimization, with particular emphasis on selection of materials and equipment, plant layout, work flow and operating procedures. Demonstrated capabilities are available in areas such as pharmaceutical technology (particularly injectable products), separation and purification processes, control of contamination by submicron particulate matter and bacteria by means of membrane filtration, sterilization and sanitation, cleanroom techniques, and the appropriate management programs for water systems, such as ultrapure water for the semiconductor industry, compressed gases and environmental air.
PHARMACEUTICAL MANUFACTURING. He can also provide assistance in process validation and documentation, verification of compliance with good manufacturing practices and general programs in quality control and assurance. Special interests and expertise lie in the development of custom test methodology to verify process and product performance, and ultimately troubleshooting and correction of performance discrepancies via appropriate steps such as training programs or efforts in process and product development.
