A pharmaceutical manufacturer producing liquid formulations required a more controlled method for adding powdered ingredients into process tanks during batch preparation.
The existing process relied on manually adding powders into liquid vessels where they were dispersed using standard tank agitation.
While this approach was workable, the manufacturer experienced several operational challenges:
Because the powders used in the formulation were readily soluble, the manufacturer did not require an aggressive high-shear powder mixer. Instead, the requirement was a simple and reliable powder intake solution capable of inducting powders into the circulating liquid stream efficiently.
