Innovation at PharmaBlock

To improve pharmaceutical supply chain sustainability, it is crucial to place green chemistry and low-carbon technologies, including but not limited to continuous flow chemistry, and biocatalysis, at the forefront of the industry’s sustainability efforts. PharmaBlock's award-winning projects, recognized by the 2023 and 2024 ACS CMO Excellence in Green Chemistry Award, exemplify these sustainable advancements with such innovative technologies. Key discussion points include: 1. Maximizing Sustainability Returns: Enhancing the environmental performance of raw materials and RSMs is crucial for achieving the highest sustainability returns. These intermediates often have a substantial environmental footprint, as their production processes may not be as optimized as those of upstream steps, and they are produced at larger scales compared to downstream processes. 2. Overcoming Flow Technology Challenges: The application of flow technology, especially in hydrogenation and other heterogeneous reactions, presents significant challenges. These include the need for substantial investment in specialized equipment, the development of immobilized catalyst technology, and the integration of process analytical technology. 3. The environmental implications of these
