Quality by Design in the Secondary Drying Step of a Freeze-Drying Process [PDF]
This paper is focused on the secondary drying step of a freeze-drying process, where the bound water is desorbed from the (partially) dried product, with the goal to achieve the target value of residual moisture in the final product. Mathematical modeling is used to get a deep understanding of the process, i.e., to study the effect of the operating ...
