I have experience working with pressurized water reactors (PWR) and boiling water reactors (BWR).
Pressurized water reactors (PWR)
Boiling water reactors (BWR)
To apply heating, cooling, chilling, and brine to reactor, I will use appropriate equipment and control systems.
Select appropriate equipment for heating, cooling, chilling, and brine application
Install and connect the equipment to the reactor
Set up control systems to regulate the temperature and flow rate of the heating, cooling, chilling, and brine
Monitor the process to ensure the desired temperature and flow rate is ...
I have handled various solvents including acetone, ethanol, and methanol. I am familiar with their boiling points and densities.
Acetone - boiling point: 56.05°C, density: 0.789 g/cm³
Ethanol - boiling point: 78.37°C, density: 0.789 g/cm³
Methanol - boiling point: 64.7°C, density: 0.7918 g/cm³
The equations I use for charging lot into the reactor depend on the type of lot and the reactor design.
Equations vary based on lot type and reactor design
Factors such as temperature, pressure, and flow rate must be considered
Examples of equations include mass balance equations and energy balance equations
I applied via Walk-in and was interviewed in Aug 2024. There was 1 interview round.
Centrifugal CF and centrifugal pump work by using centrifugal force to move fluid through the pump.
Centrifugal CF uses centrifugal force to separate particles from a fluid, such as in a centrifuge machine.
Centrifugal pump uses centrifugal force to move fluid through the pump, increasing the fluid's velocity and pressure.
Both rely on the principle of using rotating impellers to create centrifugal force.

Heat transfer is the movement of heat from one place to another due to a temperature difference.
Three types of heat transfer: conduction, convection, radiation
Conduction is the transfer of heat through a material without any movement of the material itself
Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases)
Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves
Examples: Conductio...
Distillation is a process used to separate components of a liquid mixture based on differences in boiling points.
Distillation involves heating the mixture to create vapor, then cooling the vapor to condense it back into liquid form.
The components with lower boiling points will vaporize first and be collected, while the components with higher boiling points will remain in the liquid phase.
Types of distillation include s...
There are various types of heat exchangers including shell and tube, plate, and finned tube.
Shell and tube heat exchangers are commonly used in industrial applications due to their high heat transfer efficiency.
Plate heat exchangers are compact and efficient, often used in HVAC systems and refrigeration.
Finned tube heat exchangers are used when space is limited and increased surface area is needed for heat transfer.

I applied via Pharma groups and was interviewed in May 2024. There were 2 interview rounds.
Basic Question for production department like, Handling of reactions, equipment, reactor, utility, Gmp, cGmp, Documentation.
Elements in MIS include data, information, systems, and processes. Variances can be caused by errors, changes in assumptions, or external factors.
Elements in MIS: data, information, systems, processes
Reasons for variance: errors, changes in assumptions, external factors
Example: Variance in budgeted vs. actual expenses due to unexpected increase in costs
MHR stands for Maximum Heart Rate. It is the highest heart rate an individual can achieve during exercise.
MHR can be calculated using the formula: 220 - age
For example, for a 30-year-old individual, the MHR would be 220 - 30 = 190 beats per minute
MHR is used to determine target heart rate zones for exercise intensity
MHR costing is a method of costing that assigns costs based on the actual resources used by a product or service.
MHR costing stands for Machine Hour Rate costing, where costs are allocated based on machine hours used.
It is useful in industries where machine usage is a significant factor in determining costs, such as manufacturing.
MHR costing helps in accurately determining the cost of production for each unit based on ...
LHR stands for Liquidity-Asset Ratio, it is calculated to determine a company's ability to meet short-term obligations.
LHR is calculated by dividing liquid assets by current liabilities.
It helps assess a company's liquidity and ability to pay off short-term debts.
A higher LHR indicates better liquidity and financial health.
For example, if a company has liquid assets of $100,000 and current liabilities of $50,000, the L
The fire Tetrahedron is a model that illustrates the four elements necessary for a fire to occur: fuel, heat, oxygen, and a chemical chain reaction.
Fuel: any material that can burn, such as wood, paper, or gasoline
Heat: the energy needed to raise the temperature of the fuel to its ignition point
Oxygen: the presence of oxygen in the air that supports combustion
Chemical chain reaction: a process where the heat produced b...
Fires are classified based on the type of fuel involved, such as Class A, B, C, D, and K fires.
Class A fires involve ordinary combustibles like wood and paper
Class B fires involve flammable liquids like gasoline and oil
Class C fires involve energized electrical equipment
Class D fires involve combustible metals like magnesium and titanium
Class K fires involve cooking oils and fats
