The Challenge Originally published in Tablets & Capsules Magazine Capturing and destroying harmful emissions from pharmaceutical processes can be challenging. It’s not because the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are difficult to destroy using catalytic or thermal techniques. ...

When we think about air pollution, we think about black smoke coming out of stacks in a grey, industrial area in a developing country. And that is also the case. But not only. Air pollution comes in different forms and not always visible to the human eye. ...

Often, flame or detonation arrestors are placed in each process-exhaust line to mitigate damage to the processes if all other safety measures fail. Emission control methods Catalytic oxidation VOC emissions from many pharmaceutical coating and drying processes have historically been controlled with catalytic oxidation. ...
Using an ozonation step between bio-sedimentation and post-denitrification processes, the primary goal was the removal of the highest priority substances to effluent water levels that will not cause adverse effects in the recipient considering the natural dilution. The study included initial emission screenings, dose control trials, treatment performance studies ...
Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) – responsible for the biological activity of drugs – have been widely found in the environment, yet the precise sources and relative importance of emissions via wastewater are not quite clear. This study assessed emissions from three health institutions in Germany – a hospital, a psychiatric hospital, and a nursing home - and found their ...
