In order to protect consumers, United States pharmaceuticals are one of the most heavily regulated industries in the country. The FDA creates a number of standards and tests for Pharma companies to comply with in order to create new drugs and manufacture current ones to reduce side effects and ultimately mitigate the risks to their customers. And creating a highly controlled, uncontaminated manufacturing and packaging environments is a high priority. Pharmaceutical cleanrooms are specially designed to produce this environment.

First, you must determine if a clean room is necessary. Cleanrooms are designed to maintain extremely low levels of particulates. These particulates can cause damage to sensitive items such computer components, Semiconductor fabrications, solar panels, batteries, and other sensitive products. They can come in many sizes and can even encompass entire manufacturing facilities depending upon the products being manufactured there. Contaminants, such as dust, and other airborne organisms can cause irreparable damage to these products, and cleanrooms are designed to defend against such contaminants. They are built specifically to manage and maintain a specific level of particulates that would not harm these products and typically have a cleanliness level quantified by the number of particles per cubic meter.

Pharmaceutical Cleanroom Design & ISO 14644-16

Cleanrooms and controlled contamination environments are increasingly being used across many industrial sectors, including the pharmaceutical industry. An important issue is the operating cost associated with cleanroom energy consumption and, consequently, the identification of applicable energy containment measures. This article reviews pharmaceutical cleanroom calculations for non-unidirectional airflow against energy consumption with known sources of contamination and type of air diffusion used. It proposes alternative cases to compare potential economic savings from applying energy-saving measures proposed by ISO 14644-16.1
