Title: Device and method for producing pharmaceutically highly refined particles and for coating said particles in microreactors
Inventor: TUERELI AKIF AMRE
IPC: A61K9/14
Filed: 2010-02-11
Abstract: The invention relates to pharmaceutical active substance particles having small particle size, wherein said particles are produced by combining a solvent-non-solvent precipitate with an in-situ spray drying process.   A pharmaceutical active substance is dispersed in a water-soluble solvent, in particular ethanol, and heated in an infeed line under pressure to above the boiling point of the solvent until solubilization. Said solution collides as a fine fluid jet with a fine water jet in a gas-permeated microreactor, and the fine mist so arising is thereby very rapidly vaporized.

Abstract: The invention relates to an elevator having a drive unit. The invention further relates to a wind power plant having an elevator. In order to reduce the costs for the elevator and thus to make the elevator more economically attractive, the elevator of the type indicated above is characterized in that a cabinet is used as the travel car. The invention is thereby based on the idea that the fundamental construction of a cabinet, having a floor, side walls, and a door, is no different from a travel car produced specially for an elevator. There are, of course, differences, such as in the suspension and operation of the door, but said differences can be overcome insofar as said differences oppose a use of a cabinet as the travel cab, such that the total complexity is still less than the complexity for a travel cab custom designed for the elevator.
