Accomplishments
- Done individually 2 new molecules scale up with Successful validation in one year.
- DMF Overall recovery was improved 23% by proposing in-house recovery column was established with vacuum facility Monthly Saving INR Cr: 0.35
- DMF Overall recovery was improved 23% by proposing in-house recovery column was established with vacuum facility Monthly Savings INR Cr: 0.03
- IPC methanol recovery was improved due to methanol loss reduction in Ml'S which in turn due to usage of AVPF for product filtration rather than conventional CF Monthly savings INR Cr: 0.027
- Palladium Catalyst recovery was improved form 88% to 96% which in turn due to usage of auto catalyst recovery system instead of sparkler & leaf filter Monthly savings INR Cr: 0.05
- Decreased RMC cost by increasing the output.
- IPC solvents savings in process by reducing the selling of mixed solvent by proposing effective separation & solvent de-hydration technique.
- Reducing ~ 8 washings time cycle by proposing LLE for effective impurity washing helps to reduce the utilization of equipment kg/KL cost & overheads.
- Increased distillation rate under vacuum by calculating evacuation time for minimize the vacuum leakages & by providing vacuum balancing line for the system.
