Development and Application of Control Concepts for Twin-Screw Wet Granulation in the ConsiGmaTM-25: Part 1 Granule Composition

Continuous manufacturing of pharmaceuticals offers several benefits, such as increased production efficiency, enhanced product quality control, and lower environmental footprint. To fully exploit these benefits, standard operation mode (production processes with no or minimal disturbance mitigation measures) should be supported by adopting novel quality-by-control (QbC) methodologies. The paper at hand is the first part of a study focused on developing QbC algorithms for optimizing twin-screw wet granulation in the industrial manufacturing line ConsiGma
