Sustainability is critical in pharmaceutical manufacturing, especially in Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) production, which significantly impacts global emissions.
This webinar addresses the sustainability challenges and evolving needs in small molecule API manufacturing, showcasing how regulatory pressures drive change. Join industry experts as they share compelling case studies that highlight the principles of green chemistry and innovative manufacturing techniques. Discover practical approaches for enhancing sustainability in chemical process design and learn how successful optimizations align with our commitment to sustainability as a leading small molecule API CDMO.
In this webinar, you will learn about the:
- economic viability of designing for sustainability
- tools for calculating PMI and carbon footprint on your processes
- impact of novel technologies, such as flow chemistry
- real case studies showing improved PMI and carbon footprint scoring
