Gexcon Pharmaceutical
What we can offer
The activities that are carried out in the pharmaceutical facilities, such as filtration, milling and packaging during the production stage, have the potential to create a flammable atmosphere. In these activities, chemical reactions occur involving toxic and flammable materials, thus requiring a comprehensive risk assessment to prevent potential accidents. It should be understood that both vapour and dust originating from materials processed in pharmaceutical facilities can potentially cause an explosion.
Our experts can assist you in identifying, assessing, preventing and mitigating risks from dispersion, explosion, and fire that may occur in the day-to-day operations of your facility. Our solutions involve:
- advanced engineering software for consequence and risk assessments
- incident investigations
- explosion and fire risk and safety studies
- ventilation and dispersion studies
- explosion and jet fire testing for mechanical equipment
- process safety and risk management courses, including gas and dust explosion, hazardous area classifications, and many more
Our solutions are not limited to the operational stage, we can also assist in the early design and modification stages.
