11.1 Process Details for Manufacturing of (Product Name):
11.1.1 Dissolution of XXXXXXX in XXXXXXX:
Apply vacuum to the reactor R-212 / R-213 and charge XXXX L XXXXX in to reactor. Release the
vacuum of Reactor. Open the manhole Charge XXXX Kg. of XXXX Slowly in Reactor R-212/
R-213 under stirring, after the charging close the manhole properly.
Charge XXXXXX XXXX Kg in Glass Flask GF-208/GF-213 from Tank ST-207 by gravity.
Charge slowly hydrochloric acid XXX Kg at XXXX°C in R-212/R-213 under stirring.
Stir the reaction mass for XX Min. at XXXX°C.
After charging of XXXXXXX clean the Glass Flask GF-208/GF-213 with XXXXXX till
Neutral pH. Check the pH on pH paper.
Withdrawn the sample and check clarity of Reaction mass from reactor. Reaction mass should be
Clear. If Reaction mass is not clear then stir the reaction mass for further XX min at XX °C.
11.1.2 Preparation of XXXXXXXXX Solution:
Take XX L. purified water in cleaned HDPE drum & add XX Kg XXXXXXXXX slowly. Stir with
HDPE/Teflon rod. (XXXXXXXX should not expose with MS, SS item and solvent vapor). Apply
vacuum to the Glass Flask GF-208/GF-213 and charge XXXXXXX solution in Glass flask. Slowly
start addition of XXXXXXX solution in R-212/R-213 under stirring in allow to raise the temp. and
maintain between XXXXX °C in XXX Hrs.
After the complete addition of XXXX solution, maintain reaction mass at XXXX°C.
(if temp below XX°C then apply hot water to the jacket of reactor to achieve temp XXXX°C).
Stir th reaction mass at XXX°C for XX min. Withdraw the sample from reactor R-212/ R-213 for
HPLC test. (To check XXXXXXX content (NMT 1.0 %) & XXXXXXXXXX (NMT 3.5 %).
If HPLC results is not complies add XXXXXXX solution (XXXXXXXXX & water in the
ratio 1:2) as per reaction requirement and continue reaction monitoring up to XXXXXXXX content
within the limit. Cool the reaction mass to XXXXXX C.

11.1.3 Preparation of XXXXXXXXXXXX Solution in to reactor & pH adjustment:
Charge XXX L. Water in reactor apply chilling to reactor and keep water under stirring Open
manhole and charge XX Kg XXXXXXXXXX slowly under stirring in reactor. Chill solution to XX
– XX C. Transfer the above chilled caustic solution to receiver V-208A/V-213.
Add slowly prepared XXXXXXXX solution at XX –XXC to R-212 / R-213 and adjust the pH
X-X by using Sodium Hydroxide solution. Record the temperature. After complete addition stir the
reaction mixture and cool to XX – XX C and maintain for XX min.
Note:
If the integrity is not satisfactory, replace it with a new one and sieve the entire batch quantity again.
11.1.13 Packaging:
Product shall be packed in transparent Polythene bag Qty. Qs then placed in Black Polythene bag
Qty. Qs and then placed in HDPE/Fiber Board Container.
