Why Should You Attend:
Compressed air is often overlooked as a potential source of clean room and product contamination. This webinar will give you an understanding of the different types of contamination inherent in compressed air and how to prevent each from affecting your particular system.
A detailed description of a typical pharmaceutical compressed air system with its individual components will be provided. Engineering schematics will also be included. All component functions will be detailed with recommendations as to which component type is considered optimal.
The four contamination sources in compressed air will be discussed. They are:
Solid particulate
Water content
Total oil content
Microbial bioburden
For each of these, the presentation will discuss cause and effect. Suggestions will also be provided for preventing contamination. Finally, a compilation of all FDA/EU GMP guidelines, USP/EP and ISO air standards will be presented. Sampling and testing methodology for each of these specifications will be discussed as well.

Topic Background:
The design, construction and monitoring of a compressed air system is essential for maintaining a quality system without product contamination. Compressed air for pharmaceutical use is considered a critical utility as many of its applications involve direct contact with the pharmaceutical product. Proper testing of compressed air quality according to international standards is important for both validation and ongoing monitoring of the system as well.
