Why does cooling become complicated on an industrial scale in pharmaceutical manufacturing?
Why does cooling become complicated on an industrial scale in pharmaceutical manufacturing?
- Increased cost, higher reagent viscosity, non-homogeneous reaction (correct)
- No impact on cost, no change in reagent viscosity, no impact on reaction
- Decreased cost, lower reagent viscosity, homogeneous reaction
- Unchanged cost, increased reagent viscosity, non-homogeneous reaction
