About the webinar

This webinar was brought to you in collaboration with APC.

Good crystallization process design, for intermediates or final APIs, can save you months of time during development. Dr Andrew Byrne will present a series of case studies to demonstrate the value created through the targeted application of ternary phase diagrams, PAT and other tools for the accelerated development of crystallization unit operations. In this webinar, Andrew will detail the initial crystallization design workflow, methodology, theory and engineering details associated with the journey towards robust crystallization operations for the resolution of stereoisomers and / or increasing crystallisation isolated yield.
