Pharmaceutical Production Facility HVAC
International standards and directives such as FDA and GMP are applied at every stage of production, including packaging and storage.
For this reason, HVAC systems are among the most important factors in pharmaceutical production. The working area is sensitive to air pollution. Therefore, adequate protection must be provided against the entry of contaminants.
Effective indoor air quality directly affects the quality and usability of medicines in production and storage areas.
What Are Pharmaceutical Facility HVAC Systems?
Powders, liquids, dragees and pharmaceutical packaging are highly sensitive to humidity levels and temperature changes. Even a low percentage of humidity may make an entire pharmaceutical batch unusable.
Therefore, dehumidification systems should be used. In pharmaceutical production stages where hygroscopic substances are used, humidity is a highly critical factor.
Dehumidification and Adsorption Dryers
When the humidity factor cannot be managed by HVAC systems, changes may occur in the active ingredient ratios of medicines, or powdered medicines may clump and become unusable.
Considering all these points, a dehumidification system is required in the HVAC area.
The disadvantage of powdered substances, granules, dragees and pharmaceutical packaging is their tendency to absorb moisture. If humidity does not reach the required value, medicines may clump or stick.
Humidity Factor in Pharmaceutical Production
If humidity does not reach the required value, medicines may clump or stick. This value refers to low percentage humidity levels.
In addition, humidity may cause contamination in medicines. This contamination may lead to serious consequences in terms of durability.
In this case, adsorption dryers are used. Adsorption dryers help secure the medicines.
