Questions and Answers

What are some unit operations involved in the process of pharmaceutical manufacturing?

  • Milling, granulation, coating, tablet pressing (correct)
  • Mixing, heating, cooling, condensation
  • Extraction, evaporation, centrifugation, drying
  • Fermentation, distillation, crystallization, filtration

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

What impact can lower temperatures have on pharmaceutical manufacturing?

  • Enhanced purity of the product
  • Reduced cost of stirring and part replacement
  • Decreased viscosity of reagents, intermediates, and byproducts
  • Crusting of reagents, intermediates, and byproducts to the reaction vessel (correct)
