MOISTURE/HUMIDITY CONTROL BY CLIMECH INDIA
HUMIDITY CONTROL FOR CLEAN ROOMS
Clean Rooms are workplaces where contamination is controlled. The Clean Rooms are said to provide a conducive environment (for research, development and manufacturing of equipment or processes) with a low level of environmental pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, aerosol particles, and chemical vapors.
HUMIDITY PROBLEMS IN DIAGNOSTIC CENTRES
Many diagnostic centres functions 24X7 and houses the state-of-the-art, fully automated electronic equipment and advanced instrumentation from leading international brands. Such expensive medical instruments require environmental stability to operate optimally and maintain the accuracy of results.
HUMIDITY CONTROL IN DRY POWDER VIAL FILLING
The filling operations entail include conveying of powdered substances to packaging areas in a high velocity air-stream and filling minute quantities of the powder in the vials and capsules. High humidity may cause the powder to stick and cluster together in the conveyor thus hampering airveying and filling operations.
HUMIDITY CONTROL FOR GELATIN DRYING
Gelatin or gelatine is a translucent, colorless, brittle (when dry), flavorless food derived from collagen obtained from various animal body parts. It is commonly used as a gelling agent in food, pharmaceutical drugs, vitamin capsules, photography, and cosmetic manufacturing. Gelatin is used in shampoos, face masks, and other cosmetics; as a thickener for fruit gelatins and puddings (such as Jell-O); in candies, marshmallows, cakes, ice cream, and yogurts; on photographic film; and in vitamins as a coating and as capsules, and it is sometimes used to assist in “clearing” wines.
TABLET COATING, CAPSULE DRYING HUMIDITY LEVELS CONTROL IN PHARMA INDUSTRY
In the coating pan for tablets, heavy sugar solution is added to the tumbling mass. As the water evaporates, sugar crystals cover each piece. Blowing the proper quantity of air at the correct dry and wet bulb temperatures forms smooth, opaque coating. If cooling and drying are not at the desired rate, the coating is rough, translucent and unsatisfactorily in appearance; if too fast, the coating chips through to the interior.
MOISTURE CONTROL SOLUTIONS FOR SOFT GELATIN CAPSULE MANUFACTURING
In soft gelatin manufacturing, warm liquid gelatin is spread over a slowly revolving, stainless steel drum. A supply of chilled dry air congeals the gelatin as the drum rotates so that a tacky, elastic band rolls off the other end. This thin band is automatically formed into capsules, filled with medicine. If you temperature and humidity are too high, gelatin will start softening and prevent solidification. From the capsulating machines the soft, moist capsules are transferred to drying drums or chambers for rapid drying depends on the size from which the moisture is to be removed.
