 Abstract

This chapter provides an in-depth review of spray-drying technology and its application to the formulation of poorly water-soluble drugs. In the early part of the chapter, the fundamentals of the process are discussed, including process theory, process components, equipment options, equipment by scale, various feeds, and typical solvent systems. In the latter part of the chapter, the application of spray drying to the formulation of poorly water-soluble drugs is discussed. Particular emphasis is given to spray drying for amorphous solid dispersion systems. The path toward developing an amorphous spray-dried dispersion and conversion to a final dosage form is covered in detail. Additionally, several academic and industrial examples are presented, illustrating the benefits of the process as a formulation technology and its commercial viability. Finally, the application of spray drying to inhalation as well as emerging applications, i.e., sprays congealing and micro-encapsulation, is reviewed. This chapter provides comprehensive coverage of the spray-drying process and its uses as a formulation technology toward the enhancement of drug delivery with poorly water-soluble compounds

 Abstract

Dry ports, often referred to as inland ports or intermodal terminals, are locations that act as transportation hubs for the quick movement of cargo between ships, trucks, and trains. In order to provide more access to regional markets and ease congestion in urban areas, they are typically situated away from regular seaports or airports. Typical services provided by dry ports include warehousing, cargo handling, customs clearance, and logistics administration. By promoting more eco-friendly and effective transportation options, they play a significant part in facilitating global trade, fostering economic growth, and lowering the environmental impact of transportation.

 Abstract

As a result of the coronavirus, access to legitimate clinical resources has worsened significantly, including shortages of specialists and health workers, insufficient equipment, and drug shortages. Due to the emergency of the entire medical community, many individuals died. Individuals started taking medication themselves without proper consultation due to unavailability, which made their health condition more serious than usual. A growing number of applications are using machine learning and innovative work is being done in automation. In this project, a drug recommendation system is presented with the aim of significantly reducing the burden on specialists. Using patient reviews, we developed a drug recommendation system that uses various vectorization processes such as Bow, TF-IDF, Word2Vec, and Manual Feature Analysis to predict sentiment, which can be used to recommend the most appropriate drug for a given disease based on different classification algorithms. AUC, precision, F1 score and accuracy were used to evaluate the predicted feelings. In emergency situations such as pandemics, floods or cyclones, a medical referral system can help. In the era of machine learning (ML), recommender systems produce more accurate, faster, and more reliable clinical predictions at minimal cost. As a result, these systems maintain better performance, integrity and privacy of patient data in the decision-making process and provide accurate information at all times. Therefore, we present drug recommendation systems to improve the equity and safety of infectious disease treatment. To reduce side effects, medications are recommended based on the patient's previous health profile, lifestyle and habits. A system like this could be useful in recommending safe drugs to patients, especially during medical emergencies

 Abstract

The Covid-19 epidemic has affected nearly every nation across the globe. The virus's propagation had a disastrous effect on both human health and the economy as a whole. The COVID-19 global crisis is the worst since the conclusion of World War II. The global economy decreased by 3.5 percent in 2020, according to the IMF's April 2021 World Economic Outlook Report, a 7 percent reduction from the 3.4 percent growth anticipated in October 2019. While practically every IMF-covered country had negative growth in 2020, the drop was more severe in the world's poorest regions. The global supply system and foreign trade of all countries, including India, were impacted by the worldwide lockdown to prevent the virus from spreading. Since the beginning of 2020, the Covid19 pandemic has had a negative impact on the global business climate. In recent years, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused considerable public health and economic concerns in South Asian countries, with India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan bearing the brunt of the burden. The countries' national lockdown was effective in limiting the spread of the coronavirus in South Asia, but it came at a significant economic and social price. Industrial activity has declined sharply in Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Tourism, trade, and remittances, as well as all other important sources of foreign currency for South Asian countries, have been severely hit. The COVID19 spread has had a tremendous impact on global financial markets. As the number of cases began to climb globally, the international financial and energy markets plunged significantly, notably in the United States, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Iran, and South Korea, as well as South Asian countries. Travel reductions have had a significant influence on service sectors like tourism, hospitality, and transportation. According to the IMF, South Asian economies were anticipated to decline in 2020 for the first time in four decades. Because of premature deaths, occupational absenteeism, and productivity losses, the epidemic has pushed millions into poverty and worsened income and wealth inequality. Manufacturing and productive activity have decreased as a result of global supply chain disruptions and factory closures, resulting in a negative supply shock. This has created a significant short-term hurdle for policymakers, particularly as food and commodity prices rise, worsening economic insecurity. Failing to achieve a balanced recovery might lead to social and political upheaval, as well as severe responses from governments that have been less tolerant of dissenting voices in recent years. The pandemic has devastated almost every sector of the Indian economy. But the extent and severity of the damage varied from sector to sector within each location. Aside from MSMEs, Agricultural and Agro-based businesses, Banking and NBFCs, and Social Sectors were all threatened. The pandemic caused havoc in the Financial Markets and Mutual Funds industries. As lockdown measures were implemented during the early stages of the epidemic, India's auto manufacturing and ancillary sectors were severely harmed, and the situation remained tense for many months.

 Abstract

Cement is a binding material, a substance that sets and hardens singly, and can bind other accoutrements together. In ancient civilization the list accoutrements were of traditional type similar as jiggery, lead, jute, rice coconut etc., now in ultramodern civilization cement is main in the list of accoutrements. The use of concrete containing high volume of fly ash has lately gained fissionability as a resource effective, durable and sustainable option for variety of concrete operation (1). The use of fly ash in concrete at proportions in ranging from 30% to 65% of total cementitious binders has been studied considerably over the last twenty years. In present research cement is replaced by fly ash with suitable proportions. Target strength of M20 grade is fixed, by replacing cement with high volume fly ash as per the normal blend design (2). M20 target tensile strength is gained by replacing cement 60% of its mass by fly ash. Cylindrical specimens were cast and tested for 7 and 28 days. Thirty six concrete specimens were cast and tested in this design. Out of which eighteen were for 7 days and another eighteen for 28 days. Cement has been replaced with fly ash i.e., C100F0, C80F20, C60F30, C50F50, C30F70, C10F90, COF100. Eventually good strength results obtained by replacing the cement with fly ash (3, 4).
