Training overview
Production sites and processes are changing rapidly to adapt to the increasingly stringent requests of regulatory bodies which push towards the use of safer technologies.
One of the focal points of the new Annex 1 will be the push towards the implementation of more modern technologies “Barrier systems however must be properly designed, decontaminated, operated and maintained in order to ensure effective contamination control”. Many companies need to innovate and optimize to be compliant with increasingly challenging regulatory requirements. PEC, on this day, wants to address the topic in question, with a practical and experience slant, offering a technical insight into the 2 technologies most widespread today in the production of tailings, comparing their strengths and weaknesses, in order to know how to manage them the best way to achieve and maintain the Sterility Assurance of the product. Spekaers will help you clarify doubts by answering practical questions in an enriching exchange.
