Automatic Control and Qbd


Description:
This session focuses on the use Automatic Process Control in QbD. The use of automatic control can be seen both as a strategy to maintain the process inside an envelope of operation, or as a strategy to extend the envelope of operation. Authors are invited to share their experience in the multiple steps of developing a controller and how the controller was embedded within a QbD exercise and the advantages of doing so
