Application of microwave in pharmaceutical industry

The application technology in the pharmaceutical industry is mainly in the following aspects: rapid drying, insecticide, and sterilization of Chinese medicinal materials; drying and sterilization of patent medicines, tablets, pills, etc.; drying and sterilization of powdered pharmaceuticals; oral administration Liquid sterilization, etc.

The advantage of the microwave machine in pharmaceutical industry.
1 The time is short and the speed is fast. Microwave heating is a process in which the heated object itself becomes a heating element and does not require heat conduction. Microwaves penetrate the material from all directions, making the object evenly heated in a short time, which greatly shortens the time.

2 Heat evenly. In order to improve the drying speed with the conventional drying method, it is necessary to increase the external temperature, which is easy to produce a hard shell on the outside of the pill. Microwave heating is heating inside and outside at the same time, does not require heat conduction, and usually can evenly penetrate electromagnetic waves to generate heat, so the uniformity is greatly improved.

3 Low-temperature sterilization maintains medicinal ingredients. Microwave sterilization is the result of the combination of microwave thermal effects and non-thermal effects. Compared with conventional thermal sterilization, the required disinfection and sterilization effects can be obtained at a lower temperature and in a shorter time. The microwave thermal effect mainly plays the role of rapid temperature rise and sterilization. Non-thermal effects cause proteins and physiologically active substances in microorganisms to mutate, resulting in loss of vitality or death. Thermal and non-thermal effects work together to greatly shorten the processing time.
