Optimal Control of the Primary and Secondary Drying Stages of Bulk Solution Freeze Drying in Trays

Abstract: The problem of operating a tray freeze dryer to obtain a desired final bound water content in minimum time is formulated as an optimal control problem with the use of the rigorous unsteady state mathematical model of Sadikoglu and Liaois 191 that has been found to describe satisfactorilv the exoerimental dvnamic . . . behavior of the primary and secondary drying stages of bulk solution freeze drying of pharmaceuticals in trays. The heat input to the material being dried and 400 SADIKOGLU. LIAPIS. AND CROSSER t… Show more

“…1a) of the packed particles in a tray increases and makes the resistances to heat and mass transfer in the packed bed to increase. It would be interesting in the future to investigate whether the use in SFD systems of time optimal control [24] for the total pressure in the drying chamber of the freeze dryer and for the heat input during the primary drying stage, could prevent the formation of a secondary dried layer.…”

“…It should be noted that no claim is made that this is the optimal program of process control, such can only be identified by solving the time optimal control problem for freeze drying in vials, as demonstrated for freeze drying of slabs by Sadikoglu et al (1998). For Case I or III, after a period of time of primary drying, it may happen that T lp ‫ס‬ T up ‫ס‬ T max will raise T II (t,z,r) above the melting temperature T m at some point along the bottom of the frozen layer, if no appropriate control of T lp (T lp ‫ס‬ T up ) is undertaken (this corresponds to a masstransfer limited process; for the operational strategies in this work, only mass-transfer limited behavior was observed during primary drying).…”

“…[45][46][47] There are few papers strictly concerning optimization of MWFD [3,38] ; however, there are works dealing with optimal control of the freeze-drying process using conventional heating methods. [30,32,[34][35][36] Therefore, the objective of the present work is to determine the optimal control policy of the microwave freeze-drying primary stage of the random solids to improve the drying rate and simultaneously achieve desired product quality. The vacuum chamber pressure and microwave power are considered controllable factors in the microwave freeze-drying system in order to avoid gas breakdown (corona discharge) and melting.…”

“…[5][6][7][8][9] Many mathematical analyses presented in papers concerning freeze drying with conventional heating can be adapted in the modeling of MWFD. [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] Generation of volumetric heat sources by microwave energy is governed by the same mechanisms regardless of the type of microwave-assisted drying method. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44] When liquid water is present in investigated material, the distribution of electric field strength in a sample is considered.…”
