BASF 311 Building Laboratory Renovation

Science, Technology and Lab Experience:

Healix Pharmacy Compounding Laboratory – Houston, TX
Renovation of approximately 15,000 SF for use as pharmaceutical compounding and support space. Build-out included approximately 700 SF of ISO 7 (Class 10,000) and ISO 5 (Class 100) clean room space. Design of this lab was in accordance with the USP 797 Guidelines, 2008 edition.

Brazosport Cancer Center – Lake Jackson, TX
Renovation of approximately 9,000 SF of space and addition of approximately 6,000 SF of space for outpatient cancer treatment. This renovation included approximately 500 SF of space used for compounding pharmaceuticals. Compounding occurred under an ISO 5 containment housed in an ISO 7 environment. Design was in accordance with current USP 797 guidelines.

University of Texas Medical Branch Pharmacy / Radio Pharmacy Renovations – Galveston, TX
Renovation project that began as a study to determine required modifications to existing Pharmacy and Radio Pharmacy (Nuclear Medicine) to bring the spaces up to current pharmaceutical standards. Standards reviewed for compliance as a part of this project included in part:

Westchase Pharmacy Buildout – Houston, TX
Renovation of approximately 1,800 SF of general office space for use as pharmaceutical compounding and support space. Design of this lab was in accordance with the USP 797 Guidelines, 2008 edition.

Memorial Hermann Hospital – The Woodlands, TX
Renovation of approximately 3,000 SF of space (2 phases) of hospital administrative space for use as a pharmacy to support the hospital. The renovated space included pharmaceutical compounding and support space. Design of this lab was in accordance with the USP 797 Guidelines, 2008 edition.

Memorial Hermann Southwest Hospital – Houston, TX
Peer review of design documents for approximately 1,500 SF of space to be renovated in the hospital for use as pharmacy space. This review was to verify conformance with the USP 797 Guidelines, 2008 edition as well as good engineering practice.

BASF Corporation – Freeport, TX
Acrylic Monomers Lab Renovation, Quality Assurance Laboratory Facility, Capro-Anone Research Laboratory, Capro-Lactam II Production Laboratory, Capro-Lactam Production Control Room Ventilation System

Memorial Hermann Northeast Hospital – Humble, TX
Renovation of approximately 5,000 SF of space in multiple phases to upgrade the existing pathology laboratory. The renovation was designed and phased such that part of the lab remained operational during the construction process. Extreme attention was given to infection control measures in the design of the project.

BASF 701 Building HVAC & Pressurization System
This project included replacement and relocation of existing HVAC equipment, ductwork and appurtenances which resulted in a complete and functional HVAC and pressurization system.

BASF 800/ 806 Building Exhaust & Control Room Fresh Air Supply System
The project consisted of designing a new fresh air ventilation system for the Capro-Lactam production facility. The issue was complicated by the fact that due to the location of the Control Room, fresh air was not readily available. Wanting to maintain a pressurized environment within the Control Room required that pressurization testing prior to the design was required to determine, empirically, the amount of air needed to produce the requested level of pressurization, relative to the surrounding production facilities. Once this was accomplished, a multiple bed, gas-phase filtration system, along with a water cooled chilled water air conditioning system was designed to scrub the incoming air, temper it and deliver it to the Control Room. This design saved the construction of a 200+ foot 32” round, stainless steel outside air stack which would have been required to get to a location with acceptable air quality to accomplish the task at hand.
