Industrial Chemical Processes
Chemical processes are used to produce chemical
products and are by definition processes which
include chemical transformation(s).
Specific products produced by the chemical and
pharmaceutical industry include: aspirin,
ibuprofen, paracetamol, naproxen, labetalol, etc
These active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are
produced by chemical reactions involving organic
chemicals (organic chemistry).

Paul Ashall, 2008
Chemical processes cont.
• Route (materials, steps, operations etc)
• ‘Recipe’(materials, quantities, steps)
• Plant equipment (operations)
• Process operating conditions
![Page 6: An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process ...libvolume2.xyz/chemicalengineering/btech/semester5/chemical... · An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process Technology](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030410/5a9d5a557f8b9abd058c2d70/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Paul Ashall, 2008
Many chemicals are mixed with other chemicals to produce formulations suitable for consumer use. These include consumer products such as paints, fragrances, pesticides and medicinal products. For example ibuprofen is the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the OTC product ‘Nurofen’, which contains other ingredients called excipients.
![Page 7: An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process ...libvolume2.xyz/chemicalengineering/btech/semester5/chemical... · An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process Technology](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030410/5a9d5a557f8b9abd058c2d70/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Paul Ashall, 2008
Specific processes have been developed to
produce specific chemicals. Particularly
well established processes are given names.
For example the process used to
manufacture sulphuric acid is called the
‘Contact’ process.
In some cases a chemical may be produced by
more than one process.
![Page 8: An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process ...libvolume2.xyz/chemicalengineering/btech/semester5/chemical... · An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process Technology](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030410/5a9d5a557f8b9abd058c2d70/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Paul Ashall, 2008
The chemical industry consists of many different
sectors (or product groups), each with their own
characteristics. For example pharmaceuticals,
pesticides, fertilisers, petrochemicals, dyestuffs etc
The type of chemical produced will determine the
particular characteristics of the process (or
processes) used to produce the product. For
example compare the processes used to
manufacture ammonia and aspirin.
![Page 9: An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process ...libvolume2.xyz/chemicalengineering/btech/semester5/chemical... · An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process Technology](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030410/5a9d5a557f8b9abd058c2d70/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Paul Ashall, 2008
Classification of chemical products
• Bulk chemicals e.g. sulphuric acid
• Fine chemicals e.g. ‘ibuprofen’
• Speciality chemicals e.g. adhesives
• Inorganic/organic
![Page 10: An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process ...libvolume2.xyz/chemicalengineering/btech/semester5/chemical... · An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process Technology](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030410/5a9d5a557f8b9abd058c2d70/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

continued
Bulk chemicals are characterised by a combination of two parameters – large volume production, which is supported by market demand, and lower unit costs, where the principle of economy of scale is important.
Fine chemicals are produced on a relatively smaller scale in more versatile (less dedicated generally) production units using batch operations. Product specifications may be more exacting and unit cost is relatively higher. Fine chemicals may be used as ingredients in formulations or as intermediates in the production of more complex
chemicals. For example bulk pharmaceuticals.

Paul Ashall, 2008
Speciality chemicals
These are chemically formulated products
manufactured from basic chemicals which
are used by industry and domestic
consumers for specific purposes. For
example: coatings, adhesives,
pharmaceutical products, pesticides,
cosmetics, disinfectants etc

Paul Ashall, 2008
Chemical process operations are of two basic
types:
• Batch processes, which operate according
to batch cycles,
• Continuous processes, which operate
continuously under steady conditions.
![Page 23: An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process ...libvolume2.xyz/chemicalengineering/btech/semester5/chemical... · An Introduction to Pharmaceutical & Chemical Process Technology](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030410/5a9d5a557f8b9abd058c2d70/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Paul Ashall, 2008
Chemical processes
Chemical processes consist of a number of
sequential and integrated operations carried out in
appropriate equipment.
For example chemical reaction carried out in a
chemical reactor.
The precise operations, sequence of operations and
equipment specifications depend on the nature of
the process, operating conditions, materials used
and product produced.
