Pharmaceutical Production Facilities: Design and Applications considers the concepts and constraints that have to be considered in the design of small, medium and large scale production plants. The layout, along with the flow of materials and personnel through facilities are considered with reference to ensuring compliance with current good manufacturing practice. The book explains how clean rooms have developed, and how recent regulations affect their design. The latest concepts for reducing contamination levels from the operator and the product are discussed. It assess current changes in standards and quality control and makes suggestions for the "ideal production environment" to enable standards to be validated to current standards.

Highway Bridge Management provides the bridge maintenance engineer and bridge manager with key information necessary to effectively manage highway bridges and other structures. The appropriate maintenance of highway bridge structures is vital to the safe and economic transport of goods and people. The bridge maintenance engineer has to have a skill set of asset management, inspection and assessment techniques, value engineering and prioritisation methods, repair techniques, legal and safety matters and stakeholder engagement. This book contains all the necessary information required to manage a highway bridge effectively and provides information beyond that found in the UK Design Manual for Roads and Bridges. Featuring case studies charting successes and failures, this is a necessary purchase for all maintenance engineers, supervising engineers, bridge managers, client organisations and graduate engineers tasked with performing bridge maintenance tasks, ensuring that all your bridge structures will be fit for purpose for future generations.

This book is the definitive work on the theory and practice of pharmaceutical tablet and pellet coating. It describes both the practical and theoretical aspects of tablet coating, including the equipment and methods used in laboratory development, scale-up and production systems, More...as well as automation and validation. This book also discusses the problems of conforming to world-wide regulations, and the hazards of environmental pollution.
