Centrifuge equipment general principles

Qualification of equipment—The qualification of BPC process equipment including reaction vessels, receivers, crystallizers, centrifuges, dryers, filters, distillation columns, solvent distribution systems, etc. is a well-defined activity. While this equipment is somewhat different in design and operating features, than the dosage form equipment that has been the subject of the majority of papers on the subject, the same general principles apply. Reaction vessels, receivers, and crystallizers differ only minimally from formulation and water for injection tanks. Some BPC dryers are identical to those utilized in tablet departments. Solvent distribution systems are piping systems and may resemble WFI distribution systems. Some pieces of equipment such as distillation columns...
