APIs synthesis reaction skid
Solution
3V Technologies:
Reaction.
3V Competences:
Mechanical design and capability to combine different types of process equipment and anticorrosive materials of construction all together.
Design:
3D modelling of the full reaction system.
Build:
Internal manufacture of glass lined equipment and assembly with process piping, valves, instruments on a metallic skid frame.
Operate:
Final installation and commissioning of the skid at customer place.
Team
3V project team:
Glass lined facility: Head of Production, Head of Technical Department, Field Service Engineers.
Site of realisation:
Spain.
Audience
Client industry:
Pharmaceutical.
Context
Project context:
New API facility for a CMO.
Project goal & client needs:
The client approached us with the need to realise a new API reaction unit in order to increase its capacity.
Results
Project execution timing:
9 months.
Project complexity:
The most challenging aspect of the project involved the combination of different anticorrosive materials altogether (carbon steel glass lined vessels, silicon carbide heat exchanger, PTFE lined process piping and fittings).
