Pharmaceutical Wastewater Treatment
Dric specializes in delivering cutting-edge wastewater treatment solutions for the pharmaceutical industry. We understand the unique challenges of pharmaceutical wastewater, including high concentrations of organic pollutants, toxic residues, and complex chemical compositions. Our advanced technologies effectively remove contaminants such as antibiotics, solvents, and residual APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients), ensuring compliance with stringent environmental regulations.
Features
Pharmaceutical wastewater is a critical environmental issue due to its high toxicity, complex composition (antibiotics, solvents, APIs), and resistance to conventional treatment methods. To address these challenges, Dric offers advanced, cost-effective solutions tailored to the pharmaceutical industry’s needs:
Traditional Methods | Our Solution |
High treatment costs | 30%+ cost reduction |
Low biodegradability | Hybrid systems for complete pollutant breakdown |
Excessive sludge production | Sludge minimization technologies to cut disposal costs |
7 Steps Pharmaceutical Wastewater Treatment:
Wastewater Collection & Characterization: Analysis of contaminants (APIs, solvents, heavy metals, high COD/BOD)
Pretreatment: Remove solids, adjust pH, neutralize toxins
Primary Treatment: Reduce organic load
Secondary (Biological) Treatment: Degrade biodegradable organics
Advanced Treatment: Remove trace pollutants, disinfection
Sludge Management: Safe disposal/reuse of dewatered sludge
Water Reuse/Discharge: Compliant effluent (meets WHO/local standards)
