Pretreatment technology is the first step in pharmaceutical water purification. Pretreatment modules are the preparation of water to be delivered to purification modules of Reverse osmosis, ion exchange, distillation, and micro and ultrafiltration. Poor pretreatment engineering will have a negative impact on the performance of the downstream purification module causing undue maintenance, costs, and lack of performance.  

This seminar describes and identifies new and innovative technology that can eliminate many traditional pretreatment modules while positively affecting downstream purification steps.

The new ISO-22519 pretreatment standard for pharmaceutical waters elucidates many pretreatment issues that will be discussed.  ISO is a voluntary standard that may be instituted by a company and is often quoted or cited by a regulatory agency. This presentation offers ideas, physical modules, and descriptions of alternative pretreatment options.  No endorsement of pretreatment options is offered, only the identification and usage.

You will learn the economics defined for CAPEX and OPEX of pretreatment and how to ascertain lifecycle costs to make better and more informative decisions about the pretreatment needs of your pharmaceutical water systems.

You will learn whether ISO-22519 is applicable to your current and future water systems.

You will see the comparisons of traditional Pretreatment with innovative pretreatment.

Areas Covered

  • Pretreatment Current and Innovative Designs
