Decreasing Risk and Improving Compliance

This white paper describes how one of the top five pharmaceutical companies in the world deployed a new toolset for managing its Environmental Health & Safety requirements. This pharmaceutical manufacturer can now:
  • Track, manage, and meet Environmental Health & Safety performance targets throughout the organization
  • Consolidate and link efforts to predict, monitor, and report on manufacturing impacts on the environment
  • Collect and access chemicals safety data
  • Ensure corporate management of compliance through adopted procedures

ExSact by Exelus Inc. - an alternative catalyst for alkylation process in oil refinery

In ordinary petroleum refining process Hydrogen Fluoride or Sulfuric Acid is being used as the catalyst for alkylation process. It is the unit operation which ensure a high-octane component for gasoline. But Hydrogen Fluoride or Sulfuric Acid are toxic and dangerous specially when an accident occurred. Environmentalist and unions of refineries make voice against use of Hydrogen Fluoride or Sulfuric Acid which can be harmful for employees and neighbours. So industrialist try to find an alternative.

Exsact is a solid-acid catalyst which essentially are rocks that act chemically as acids. Exsact is made of the mineral zeolite and other metals.

Report on Aluminium extrusion industry in China

The Aluminium industry of china is world third largest aluminium production just behind for U.S.A and Rusia. By end of 2000, thier production volumes of primary aluminum in China has averaged to 2,817,000MT/year. The aluminum fabrication has become one of the most important industries in China. Aluminum extrusion profile, or extrudate, being an items used widespread in construction, industries and other areas, has been growing rapidly in the past.

EuroNanoMedicine 2009 - Nanomedicine as an opportunity in modern medicine

EuroNanoMedicine 2009 from 28-30 September in Bled

The treatment of diseases such as diabetes, cancer, multiple sclerosis or dementia is also modern medicine still face major challenges. Promising approaches, the "nano", ie the use of tiny particles in the diagnosis and therapy. The latest progress and results are on the EuroNanoMedicine 2009 at 28-30 September 2009 in Bled, Slovenia, by experts from the fields of medicine, nanotechnology, chemistry, cell biology and toxicology are presented and discussed.

Outstanding issues of EuroNanoMedicine 2009, including the body's own barriers to overcome with the help of nanoscale active transport systems, new nano-based diagnostics and Biokompabilität and toxicity of such novel systems. The three-day conference includes, in addition to scientific considerations also political and social aspects of nanomedicine in Europe.

Nanomaterials are primarily known in the industry, for example in the coating of surfaces. In nanomedicine nanoparticles are, inter alia, as drug carriers are used. They should be active against premature degradation on its way through the body or prevent the inclusion in the body easier. By inserting specific biological functions at the nanoscale surface of this vehicle is a directed drug release at the destination can be achieved. This can reduce the effectiveness of the drug increase and decrease side effects.

EuroNanoMedicine organizers of the 2009 is the multidisciplinary NanoBioPharmaceutics Integrated Project together with the projects NanoEar and MediTrans, all three projects will be funded by the European Commission. In NanoBioPharmaceutics have 25 partners from 12 EU countries and Israel together, including 12 universities, six research institutes, four SMEs and three large pharmaceutical companies. The project has a duration of four years and ends in September 2010.

The aim of the project is biodegradable nanoparticle-based transportation systems that provide protein or peptide drugs safely through physiological barriers are transported and released at the destination can be set. For example, a first Alzheimer's medication, the blood-brain barrier pass, which the brain protects against harmful substances. Even for diabetes patients would be a big gain in quality of life mean, it could be diabetes medication orally instead of by injection. Moreover, within nano-BioPharmaceutics new test systems based on cell cultures and investigated with the results from animal experiments compared. The long-term goal here is to find methods that are currently for testing animal testing of drugs prescribed limit, and perhaps someday may replace.

Towards the end of the third year project is under NanoBioPharmaceutics a wide range of nanoparticulate systems have been developed, optimized and are currently on their success and their suitability for the transport of drugs in oral or nasal intake or through the blood-brain barrier to be reviewed.

Faculty of Chemical and Process Engineering


The Faculty of Chemical and Process Engineering at the University of Karlsruhe (TH) is one of 12 chairs at 6 institutes and approximately 700 students to the world's largest study of its direction. There are a total of five engineering courses. The two traditional diploma courses Chemical Engineering and Process Engineering are interdisciplinary, the tension between engineering, technical physics, mathematics, physical and technical chemistry. Since 1995, the biotech-based, biotechnology Trinational Study of Upper Rhine Universities at the Ecole Superieure de Biotechnologie de Strasbourg (ESBS) at the Université Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg offered.

Since 2001, in addition to the diploma courses Chemical and Process Engineering Degree of Bioengineering established. A conversion of these three programs at the Bachelor-/Master-System is for the winter semester 2009/10 planned. Since the winter semester 2006, the English-language graduate and Wastewater Utilities, the possibility of a master's degree.

The research focus lies in the three overarching themes of the material process technology, biotechnology and food technology and energy and environmental technology. The interdisciplinary skills to successfully deal with these future-oriented fields is through a comprehensive curriculum in the basic subjects covered.
