Order of Mixing
Solute is added to the solvent in a mixing
vessel
Stir until dissolution is achieved
Apply heat if the solute is more soluble in
elevated temperatures
Solutes having low concentrations are pre-
dissolved in small volumes of solvent and
eventually added to the bulk
2. Important processing steps done prior, during and after processing:
A.) Prior:
All employed in processing shal be checked before use.
All materials utilized in processing shall be checked for its
identity and weight against the batch record before use
Ensure that working area and equipment are free from any
material product that is not required for current operation
All equipment should be clean before operation
B.) During:
- All operation shall be performed in accordance with the written
procedures. Any deviation shall be justified and reported
- Particular attention shall be given to the possibility of cross-
contamination.
- All containers and equipment holding intermediate products
shall be properly labaled as to identify the material and stage of
C.) After:
All in-process intermediate and bulk controls shall be accurately
recorded at the time of performance . All step-wise activities in the
processing operation indicated in the batch processing record shall
be signed and dated at the time of completion of the activity
3. Dead-legs on piping system
Dead leg is a length of pipe leading to an outlet which has been removed
or is rarely used or unused entirely. These sections of process piping
therefore become isolated and no longer maintain a regular flow of water.
Dead legs are often formed in both industrial and domestic process piping
as processed are changed or modified.
