Scale-Up or Scale-Out? Choosing the Right Strategy for Increasing Purification Capacity

As purification demands grow from laboratory development toward pilot and industrial production, one of the first questions process engineers face is simple: How can production capacity be increased without sacrificing separation performance? This article explains the difference between scale-up and scale-out in CPC, and why parallel purification, also known as farming, can be an attractive strategy for increasing production capacity.

Understanding CPC Operation Modes: Ascending, Descending and Multiple Dual-Mode

Choosing the right operating mode is one of the most important decisions in Centrifugal Partition Chromatography (CPC) method development. Solvent-system selection and partition coefficients (Kd) determine whether a separation is chemically feasible. However, the operating mode determines how that partition behavior is translated into an actual chromatographic process.

How to run a feasibility study on CPC

Feasibility study or FST, is the first practical steps in CPC (Centrifugal Partition Chromatography) method development.The feasibility study starts with understanding the starting material and the target compound. This includes the starting material, target compound, impurity profile, available analytical method and expected outcome.

From Solvent Selection to Robust CPC Method Development

Successful CPC purification is the result of a carefully developed method rather than a single experimental decision. After a promising biphasic solvent system has been identified, the next step is to understand how the target compound and its impurities behave within that system under realistic operating conditions.

From extraction to purification

Understanding liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), liquid-liquid chromatography (LLC) and centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC). Where does extraction end and purification begin? This article explores the key differences between LLE, LLC and CPC, and explains why modern pharmaceutical manufacturing increasingly relies on integrated downstream purification strategies to achieve high purity, scalability and process efficiency.
