Water is an important raw material in the manufacture of medicine. After purification, non-pharmacopoeia water, purified water, or water for injection must be stored and distributed in a properly designed, installed, tested, and validated system.
Controlling water quality in the distribution loop can be challenging to ensure that water is delivered to the point of use at the required flow rate and temperature. That's why pharmaceutical manufacturers are looking for sustainable, energy-efficient solutions to deal with red iron powder, membrane buildup, or other impurities in the water distribution loop.
Objectives of pharmaceutical water systems:
• Keep water quality within permissible limits
• Deliver water to the point of use at the required flow rate and temperature
• Minimize capital investment and operating expenses
• Easily verify all equipment, spare parts and repair kits
