Pharmaceutical
Wastewater Treatment & Sludge Dewatering for the Pharmaceutical Industry
Pharmaceutical manufacturing produces wastewater that is complex, high-strength and often variable from batch to batch. Process water, equipment cleaning water and solvent-bearing streams can carry active pharmaceutical ingredients and other compounds that require careful treatment. With tightening regulations and growing corporate sustainability commitments, facilities face pressure to treat this wastewater effectively while reducing water use. ECOR provides on-site wastewater treatment, sludge dewatering and filtration services that help pharmaceutical facilities stay compliant, reduce disposal costs and support water reuse goals.
Through laboratory and on-site analysis, our team identifies what's in your wastewater and builds a treatment approach around your contaminants, permit limits and production schedule.
