A. Short Description of the Project: Synthesis of Ciprofloxacin, developing optimized method for synthesis, conversion to continuous operation, exploring the crystallization along with wastewater treatment
a. Essential Qualification: M. Chem. Eng. or Equivalent
b. Subject: Chemical Engineering
c. Desirable Qualification: M. Chem. Engg.
d. Experience Desirable: experience in synthesis of drugs/pharmaceuticals/chemicals and purification
e. Experience: Duration 1 Year
f. Short Job Description: Candidate has to develop methods for synthesis of ciprofloxacin, perform experiments first to optimize the conditions at batch level followed by developing a continuous process. Candidate will then work on the purification aspects including the crystallization as well as process intensification based on the use of ultrasound. Finally the project will involve using advanced oxidation processes for treating the effluent generated in the process
B. Short Description of the Project: The project deals with the development of cost-effective and environment-friendly processes for the identified Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (Ambroxol HCL, APIs) and Key Starting Materials (KSMs) along with scale-up activities for further leverage by the Indian API companies for indigenous production to reduce and eventually nullify external dependence.
a. Essential Qualification: Masters in Pharmaceutical Chemistry or Equivalent
b. Subject: Chemistry
c. Desirable Qualification: M. Tech. (Pharm. Chem. Tech.)/M. Tech. (Green Tech.)/M. Pharm. (Pharmaceutical Chemistry)/M. Sc. (Organic Chemistry) or equivalent
d. Experience: Candidates with relevant experience in the API and API Intermediate Process Development will be given preference. Ideally, candidates with experience on multistep, multikiloscale process development of APIs with technology transfer to bulk-scale are welcome to apply.
e. Experience: Duration 0-1 Year
f. Short Job Description The Project Fellow is expected to carry out literature survey, design synthetic routes, perform various reactions on smalland larger-scales, purify the intermediates and the final products, analyze them using suitable structural characterization and chromatographic tools and document all the project activities in timely manner. The scale-up activities from lab- to pilot-plant scale form major part of the project activities. The technology transfer to the industrial scale is the desirable outcome. The project fellow is also expected to supervise the project related activities conducted by B. Tech. and/or M. Tech./M. Pharm. students. Report preparation, presentation of project activities form an integral part of the job.
