Process analytical technology (PAT) has the potential to transform pharmaceutical manufacturing by improving process understanding, product quality and economics.

Common PAT tools, including spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, can be used inline, online and at-line to monitor and control critical parameters during manufacturing.

Spectroscopic methods such as near infrared (NIR), Raman and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy are of particular interest because they do not require sample collection or manipulation. However, despite significant process in the last decade, several challenges remain for routine implementation of this technology.

In this session, speakers will draw on their own experiences to advise on best practices for implementing PAT. They will explore applications of the technology, discuss emerging PAT tools, as well as examine some of the barriers to widespread PAT adoption and how they might be overcome. 

Key learning points:

  • Understand how PAT is being used by pharmaceutical manufacturers in 2024
  • Learn how PAT can optimise manufacturing, reduce cost and ensure consistent product quality
  • Explore real-world examples of how in-line spectroscopic tools are being used to monitor critical quality attributes (CQA)
  • Discover the latest advances in PAT, as well as the long-term opportunities and potential.
  • Discover how both high and low field NMR can give an atomic resolution picture of how reactions are proceeding
  • Learn how NMR spectroscopy can be used to train Flow IR data.
