Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical

Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical is not very old concept in field of chemical drying and powder drying, however it has gain its popularity very rapidly, the demand of microwave based dryer have surged in the chemical drying and powder drying processes due to the significant advantages that it provides over conventional or other drying systems. Microwave heating in pharmaceutical containing the moisture when exposed to the microwave excites the polar molecules and ions causing the rapid movement of the ions, this frictional heat generated due to this movement of ions at very rapid rate and evaporates water instantly.

At Kerone, we provide the Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical and chemical processing industries having most demanded configuration that comprises of Vacuum and microwave, this combination helps in drying of any type of material at very fast rate. Kerones’ microwave based dryer can be utilised for continuous drying this will help in reducing the batching time.

Advantages of Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical:
  • Any Size, structure and dimension of material can be dried achieving the desired output.
  • Easy integration with automated and conveyed systems.
  • Drying time is very less
  • Reduces handling errors and production costs.

Microwave heating/drying system for thawing:

Process of bringing back the drugs from freeze state to normal state is known as Thawing.

Thawing is achieved by the way of heating the freezed substance, however the conventional heating system which heats from surface to within the material may cause issues such as uneven thawing, requires larger time for thawing as the heat penetration takes time from surface to within the material.

Kerone’s Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical designed and built after studying the detailed requirement of client is one of the reliable methods for thawing, in this the majority of drug preparation was unaffected. The stability of drugs both physical and chemical are left unaffected after microwave thawing. Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical for thawing reduces processing cost and time. Frozen potions of 100-500 ml volume were thawed consistently without overheating.

Linear associations were established for microwave power output and thawing rate and for infusion load size and thawing time. microwave heating in pharmaceutical also produced about 10% reduction in microbial count. Cloxacillin sodium, Flucloxacillin sodium and Ticarcillin disodium were reconstituted in 0.9% sodium chloride and in 5% dextrose solutions, stored frozen for up to 9 months, and stability of the antibiotics were assayed following microwave thawing.

Showed the effect of infusion volume, infusion load size and microwave power on rate of thawing. Frozen infusions of 100-500 ml volume were thawed evenly and reproducibly without overheating. Linear relationships were demonstrated for microwave power output and thawing rate and for infusion load size and thawing time. It was noted that these relationships enable predetermination of microwave thawing times. On the basis of the results guidelines for this system were developed. Microwave Heating in Pharmaceutical also caused about 10% reduction in microbial count. Cloxacillin sodium, Flucloxacillin sodium and Ticarcillin disodium were reconstituted in 0.9% sodium chloride and in 5% dextrose solutions, stored frozen for up to 9 months, and stability of the antibiotics were assayed following microwave thawing.

Advantages of Microwave based thawing:
  • Microwaves systems are more compact, requiring a smaller equipment space or footprint.
  • Microwaves generate higher power densities, enabling increased production speeds and decreased production costs.
  • Environmental heat loss is save
  • Reduction in unwanted side reaction
  • Desirable chemical and physical effects are produced.
  • Improve reproducibility
  • Uniform heating result in proper thawing from inner core to outer surface
  • Reduction in unwanted side reaction

Microwave in Grease and Lubricant Industry :

The Grease and oil Lubricant industry development rate is continue expanding and the development rate of this industry is specifically connected with the car and apparatus interest and development rate, as great quality oil and ointment are presently the interest of circumstance. Greases and oil items constitute a downstream claim to fame business that creates huge incomes and benefits for makers. The greater part of the real oil organizations are key players in the ointments business, yet free makers still hold a noteworthy offer of ointment volume in numerous nations.

KERONE is one of the trusted name in Microwaves heating systems and our 48 years excellence had established our name amongst global leaders in design and build of industrial microwave heaters and dryers.

Conventional grease manufacturing process heat the oil to formulate it in grease by the means of convection heating techniques, the conventional process results in the slow and no uniform heating of the oil, which used to result in improper settling of oil and results in poor quality grease. On other hand if microwave is used it heated the oil not from the surface but every molecule of the oil soak up the microwave and microwave transforms it energy in oil and this results in excitation of these molecules and rapid rate. Hence this result in uniform and rapid heating of the vegetable oil.

Various advantages offered by the Microwave to grease and lubricant industries are as follows:
  • Faster process manufacturing process
  • Better quality of output produced
  • Microwave heater manufactured by KERONE requires lesser space
  • Microwave heaters provide better control on process and better process safety
