ABSTRACT
The use of digital tools in pharmaceutical manufacturing has gained traction over the past two decades. Whether supporting regulatory filings or attempting to modernize manufacturing processes to adopt new and quickly evolving Industry 4.0 standards, engineers entering the workforce must exhibit proficiency in modeling, simulation, optimization, data processing, and other digital analysis techniques. In this work, a course that addresses digital tools in pharmaceutical manufacturing for chemical engineers was adjusted to utilize a new tool, PharmaPy, instead of traditional chemical engineering simulation tools. Jupyter Notebook was utilized as an instructional and interactive environment to teach students to use PharmaPy, a new, open-source pharmaceutical manufacturing process simulator. Students were then surveyed to see if PharmaPy was able to meet the learning objectives of the course. During the semester, PharmaPy's model library was used to simulate both individual unit operations as well as multiunit pharmaceutical processes. Through the initial survey results, students indicated that (i) through Jupyter Notebook, learning Python and PharmaPy was approachable from varied coding experience backgrounds and (ii) PharmaPy strengthened their understanding of pharmaceutical manufacturing through active pharmaceutical ingredient process design and development.
