Process Analytical Technology initiative and multivariate process analysis, monitoring and control

Process analytical technology is an essential step forward in pharmaceutical industry. Real-time analyzers will provide timely data on quality properties. This information combined with process data (temperatures, flow rates, pressure readings) collected in real time can become a powerful tool for this industry, for process understanding, process and quality monitoring, abnormal situation detection and for improving product quality and process reliability. A very important tool for this achievement is the multivariate analysis.
