Acryhc acid and esters are stabilized with minimum amounts of inhibitors consistent with stabihty and safety. The acryhc monomers must be stable and there should be no polymer formation for prolonged periods with normal storage and shipping (4,106). The monomethyl ether of hydroquinone (MEHQ) is frequentiy used as inhibitor and low inhibitor grades of the acrylate monomers are available for bulk handling. MEHQ at 10—15 ppm is generally... 

Semibulk Containers. Use of semibulk containers falls between bulk handling, eg, accompHshed by tank cars and hopper cars, and individual package handling, which is often performed manually. Semibulk containers are also known as intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), the provisions and requirements for the constmction and testing of which can be found in the U.N. recommendations (4). 

Because of its hygroscopicity, fmctose must be properly dried, packaged, and stored to prevent lumping and preserve free-flowing handling. Recommended storage and bulk handling conditions call for conditioned air at a relative humidity of less than 50% and a maximum temperature of 24°C... 

Belt Conveyors. A belt conveyor is made up of an endless fabric or elastomer covered belt that traverses between two or more pulleys, and is supported at intermediate points by idler roUs. These conveyors can handle a wide range of materials, from fine powders to large, lumpy stone and coal. Material can be transported at rates of over 5000 t/h and the conveyors operated at belt speeds ranging from 20 to 300 m /min over very long distances. VersatiHty, reHabiHty, and range of capacities have made belt conveyors the most commonly used bulk handling conveyors in industry.

This method of conveying now is being selected for an increasing number of industrial applications and products and hence, is playing a more vital and integral role in numerous bulk handling operations and processes. Some of the major reasons are listed below.

Development studies, summarized within a distinct report on the physiochemical aspects, drug substance attributes, and finished product characteristics, become critical parts of the validation package. Such data is also valuable for future integration into a manufacturing operation. This includes the scientific rationale for formulating and bulk-handling procedures, lyophilization processing parameters, finished product analysis, and stability requirements.
