Wastewater and pure water quality analysis

Water Quality Matters

Water quality analysis plays a crucial role in pharmaceutical manufacturing, biotechnology, and life sciences. The composition of pharmaceutical wastewater is often complex, containing high concentrations of organic matter, microbial toxicity, and high salt levels. Even after treatment, trace amounts of suspended solids and dissolved organic matter may remain, which can impact product quality and yield.

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the production of drugs involves a wide variety of compounds. With the right method, organic waste can be measured quickly, even in harsh water conditions with coarse material content. Our QuickTOCultra™ online water analyzer is highly versatile and capable of handling diverse water applications. For ecological, industrial, and municipal applications, such as monitoring influent and effluent, continuous water quality analysis is vital. The analyzer provides TRUE TOC measurement in less than 3 minutes, ensuring even short measurement value peaks are reliably detected. Maintenance is quick and easy—taking less than 30 minutes per week. We’ve designed every aspect of the analyzer for ease of use and maintenance.

Additionally, our QuickTOCpurity™ online TOC measurement system accurately determines total carbon (TC), total organic carbon (TOC), total inorganic carbon (TIC), and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in pure water. Pure water is essential for pharmaceutical production, meeting strict ionic and organic chemical purity standards. It must be carefully screened for contaminants and impurities to ensure the safety and effectiveness of medications.

For Ultra-Pure Water

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, ultra-pure water is required for both production and medication preparation. Pretreatment of water to process water standards can be expensive but necessary to meet the high-quality requirements of applications like boiler feed water. Monitoring even the smallest contamination is critical, especially in systems like boilers or heat exchangers where organic contaminants caused by leaks or product spills can have devastating consequences.

The QuickTOCtrace™ analyzer provides reliable TOC measurement for ultra-pure water. Using UV oxidation and differential conductivity measurement, it detects even the smallest organic contamination levels. This compact, intuitive analyzer delivers results in just 30 seconds, with low initial and operating costs, making it an ideal choice for increasing profitability in manufacturing processes.

Wastewater and pure water quality analysis are essential to maintaining high standards in the pharmaceutical industry, ensuring safety, quality, and compliance throughout the production process.
