Continuous Lyophilization Roll-to-Roll Manufacturing and Metrology System
- Summary
- A Purdue University researcher has developed a new roll-to-roll freeze drying metrology system that addresses issues with current batch processes. This technology helps accelerate the process and quality control by optimizing the roll to roll freeze drying system. It can also access the physio-chemical changes that take place during freeze drying.
