Process Analytical Technology (2nd Edition)

Description
Process Analytical Technology explores the concepts of PATand its application in the chemical and pharmaceutical industryfrom the point of view of the analytical chemist. In this newedition all of the original chapters have been updated and revised,and new chapters covering the important topics of sampling, NMR,fluorescence, and acoustic chemometrics have been added.

Coverage includes:

Implementation of Process Analytical Technologies
UV-Visible Spectroscopy for On-line Analysis
Infrared Spectroscopy for Process Analytical Applications
Process Raman Spectroscopy
Process NMR Spectrscopy: Technology and On-lineApplications
Fluorescent Sensing and Process Analytical Applications
Chemometrics in Process Analytical Technology (PAT)
On-Line PAT Applications of Spectroscopy in the PharmaceuticalIndustry
Future Trends for PAT for Increased Process Understanding andGrowing Applications in Biomanufacturing
NIR Chemical Imaging

This volume is an important starting point for anyone wanting toimplement PAT and is intended not only to assist a newcomer to thefield but also to provide up-to-date information for those whopractice process analytical chemistry and PAT.

It is relevant for chemists, chemical and process engineers, andanalytical chemists working on process development, scale-up andproduction in the pharmaceutical, fine and specialty chemicalsindustries, as well as for academic chemistry, chemicalengineering, chemometrics and pharmaceutical science researchgroups focussing on PAT.

Review from the First Edition

“The book provides an excellent first port of call foranyone seeking material and discussions to understand the areabetter. It deserves to be found in every library that serves thosewho are active in the field of Process AnalyticalTechnology.”—Current Engineering Practice
