ABSTRACT

In the pharmaceutical industry, HVAC systems play a crucial role in maintaining the optimal environmental conditions necessary for the production, testing, and storage of pharmaceutical products. These systems are responsible for precise control of temperature, humidity, air quality, and pressure in various areas of pharmaceutical facilities, including production areas, laboratories, and storage areas. Despite their importance, HVAC systems in the pharmaceutical industry face challenges such as energy efficiency, system complexity, and cost considerations. However, investing in state-of-the-art HVAC systems and regular maintenance can yield significant benefits in terms of product quality, regulatory compliance, and personnel safety. HVAC systems are equipped with filters that capture airborne particles, such as dust, bacteria, and other contaminants. This helps maintain a clean and sterile environment, preventing contamination of pharmaceutical products and ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory requirements for cleanliness.
