Breaking Bad Manufacturing Habits: Strategies For Sustainable API Production

Driving sustainability in the industry is a growing attention point worldwide. Any development group will need a broad toolbox composed of renewable raw material sources, green chemistry strategies, and new technologies.

The manufacturing process is typically very complex and generates a lot of waste coming from reagent consumption, workup, and crystallization. The carbon footprint and the waste to product ratio in our industry is amongst the highest of the overall Chemical Industry, so the challenge is vast. Therefore, disruptive thinking is required to make the difference. Ajinomoto Bio-Pharma Services, with its small molecule CDMO business in Europe and India, is highly ambitious in this field and as a leading partner for its customers. Aji Bio-Pharma aims to develop scaleable syntheses leading to sustainable manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients and other high value fine chemicals. This webinar provides an insight into our approach toward sustainable processes.

Learning objectives:

• An approach to meet sustainability targets,
• Toolbox for sustainable process development,
• Technological focus areas required.
