Process simulation is used for the analysis and optimization of existing and/or new processes (greenfield / existing infrastructure) within the pharmaceutical industry. Various scenarios are simulated in order to investigate the effects of different conditions on processes, facilities and production. With the help of process simulation, facilities can be customized or planned based on customer-specific requirements. At the same time, the focus is on optimizing various resources such as OPEX, FTEs or airlocks + logistics capacities in order to identify and eliminate typical bottlenecks in infrastructure, personnel or materials.
This presentation will use case studies to show how process simulation can be used to determine and optimize investment and operating costs and what our approach to successful process simulation looks like.
