Source Reduction:: W71: Other cleaning and degreasing modifications
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W71: Switched to Isopropanol for routine cleaning of equipment. Source Reduction - As a regulated pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturer, it is difficult to switch alcohols in manufacturing due to the impact to the impurity profile. This affects regulatory filings and approved drug products. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Switched from methanol to Isopropanol for routine cleaning of equipment. |
