Puretech - Model Genesys -Pre-Treatment Systems

The production of water for pharmaceutical use (WPU) requires potable water. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), the purification of the water to obtain potable water depends on the source of raw feed water for the system. The feed water available for the production of pharmaceutical waters usually contains different concentrations of solids in suspension and contaminants which must be removed before feeding the equipment for pure water production. These contaminants or compounds are usually oxides of iron and manganese, calcium, magnesium, solids in suspension of various sizes, soluble salts, organic compounds etc..

The retention devices commonly used in pre-treatment are:

• Multimedia filters
• Duplex softeners
• Particulate filters
• Dosing of chlorine, NaOH, metabisulphite.

Puretech’s modular raw water pre-treatment systems, which are skid mounted and manufactured in the UK, are designed according to the local characteristics of the incoming raw water. Pre-treatment systems ensure that all contaminants or compounds are removed from water in its raw state prior to the purification process. Typically, pre-treatment includes water softening, for hard water areas, chlorine removal, and particulate filtering, all stages of which are imperative for the safe running and longevity of the generation systems.

With over thirty years of experience in the design and delivery of pre-treatment systems and as the manufacturers of the GENYSYS, ASEPSYS and OASYS purification systems, we have an unparalleled understanding of the requirements of clients requiring pharmaceutical grade water, steam and gas systems across the globe.
