Humidity Calculations

Humidity and/or enthalpy are important measurements for determining and regulating efficiency in HVAC systems. Understanding the myriad psychrometric parameters and having the ability to convert from one to the other (humidity to enthalpy) sets you apart the rest of the field of contractors. There are many conversion tools available and the best experts understand the basis for the conversions. Develop your own custom conversion spreadsheet with these formulas.

• Sep. 30: The Control of Biotechnology Products (Reading, UK). This course will cover topics such as types of biopharmaceuticals, good manufacturing practice, quality assurance, quality control, designing the overall manufacturing process, purification, formulation, aseptic filling, process changes and improvements, and issues with generic biologicals.

• Sep. 30–Oct. 2: EUDRAGIT 3-Day Workshop: Hot Melt Extrusion and Modified-Release Applications (Piscataway, NJ). This three-day workshop will provide a detailed understanding of the chemistry and application technologies of EUDRAGIT polymers in pharmaceutical applications. It will include numerous in-depth presentations on gastrointestinal targeting, modified release, taste masking, and solubility enhancement. Lectures will be supplemented by demonstrations with state-of-the-art equipment in a process-development laboratory.

• Sep. 30–Oct. 2: The Validation Manager (Barcelona). For years, validation and qualification have been among the top deviations in the US Food and Drug Administration’s Warning Letters. Other frequent citations refer to the related topics of cleaning validation and change control. This three-day course provides an overview of the current good manufacturing practice requirements on the whole range of validation and qualification. Workshops on risk analysis and detailed case studies of qualification and validation will reinforce the theory and demonstrate the practical implementation.

• Oct. 5–7: PACK EXPO (Las Vegas). This event will feature the latest in packaging and processing innovations, new trends and technologies, and creative business solutions.

• Oct. 6–7: CHPA Manufacturing Controls Seminar (Morristown, NJ). This seminar includes topics such as stability, heavy metals, impurities, nanotechnology, supply-chain integrity, quality by design, harmonization, and extractables and leachables.
