Share Why PDS 2012? The Process Development Symposium is offered as a means for development professionals to discuss experiences in the hope that, collectively, we can refine our predictive abilities and repeat good habits while rejecting bad ones. Topics addressed at the symposium are germane to all industries that are served by chemical engineers and chemists. Experts from the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, electronics, oil and gas and specialty chemicals’ businesses will share ideas and proven methodologies for early recognition of troublesome technical and non-technical issues and their resolution. Highlights Opening Keynote: Addressing Pharmaceutical Process Development Challenges Mauricio Futran, Rutgers University, addresses process development challenges affecting the pharmaceutical industry, which is undergoing major changes. More than $100 Billion in patent protected products are facing generic competition this decade. Session II: Inherently Safer Processes Session Chair Kathy Kas, The Dow Chemical Co. Schedule Presentation Speaker Introduction to Inherently Safer Design Dennis Hendershot The Design of Safe, Efficient and Green Processes for API’s Throughout Product Lifecycle John Dillon Introduction to Inherently Safer Design Dennis Hendershot, CCPS...
