A multinational pharma company in Asia undertaking a rapid expansion needed to meet stringent USP 28 guidelines for high purity water for injectable. The existing chemically sanitisable RO-EDI system did not meet the demands of regulated markets and besides, required considerable maintenance. The customer sought a dependable system vendor for a new unit that would meet their need for high purity water, and entrusted Ion Exchange with the responsibility.
We recommended a Hot Water Sanitisable INDION High Purity Water (HPW) plant consisting of:
  • Ultra filtration
  • Softening
  • Heat Sanitisable Reverse Osmosis (RO)
  • Heat Sanitisable Ultra Filtration system
Since the customer was using surface water, UF was incorporated in pre-treatment to handle suspended solids and colloids. A heat sanitisable UF system was also offered as a polishing unit downstream of the EDI to remove endotoxins/bacteria from the product water. The factory acceptance test (FAT), witnessed by the customer, was ensured prior to dispatch of the RO-EDI plant.
Conductivity < 1.25 TOC < 500 ppb Bacteria < 10 CFU / 100 ml Endotoxins < 0.25 EU/ml
  • Chemical-free sanitisation and virtually maintenance-free system
  • Less manpower required due to high degree of automation
  • Extensive validation documentation made periodic USFDA audits effortless for the customer
]]> 19019 Complex Effluent Treatment at Tamil Nadu News Prints & Paper Ltd https://ionexchangeglobal.com/tamil-nadu-newsprint-and-papers-ltd-tnpl-waste-to-energy-at-tnpl/ Tue, 04 Jan 2022 10:07:08 +0000 https://ionexchangeglobal.com/?p=16273

A Public sector unit which manufacturers high quality newsprint at its plant in Karur, Tamil Nadu wanted to produce methane rich biogas from complex liquid waste to supplement its energy requirement. It’s existing effluent treatment was treating waste water generated from various sources within the mill premises. But the Bagasse (the raw material used here for producing paper pulp) treated water needed further treatment to produce methane rich biogas to be used as alternate source of energy.

Ion Exchange (India) Ltd was awarded with the contract for Liquid Waste Treatment & Energy Recovery. We recommended a tailored integrated waste to energy plant consisting of:

  • Anaerobic Digester (UASB)
  • High Rate Solid Contact Clarifier
  • Clarifier for bagasse treatment
  • UF & RO plant to treat water
  • Necessary pumps, piping and instruments

 

In this waste-to-energy plant, raw bagasse wash water was treated in a high rate solids contact clarifier to remove suspended solids to the maximum extent (to avoid choking of the anaerobic reactor) and then passed through an up flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor for biogas generation and reduction in organic pollutants in the effluent. UASB treated effluent then flows to the existing effluent treatment plant for further downstream treatment. The treatment capacity was 800 m3/h and 50,000 COD/day.

Our robust waste to energy plant using state-of-the-art technologies and efficient construction treats complex liquid waste and generates sustainable source energy.
