Animal Health and Veterinary Pharma Wastewater Treatment

The European animal health market is the second largest in the world with around a quarter of total volume. North America is first with 41% and Asia Pacific ranks third at 16%.
In Europe, almost 50% of households own a pet and Europeans spent 24.0 €bn on pet-related products and services, of which 4.0 €bn was on medicines.
Animal health is therefore big business but just over a third of the companies making pet medicines are relatively small SMEs.

Wastewater Treatment Services for Animal Health/Veterinary manufacturing industries:

Arvia produces a range of water treatment systems suitable for human and animal health products manufacturing companies. Arvia’s plant is suitable for:

Removal of Organic Compounds

Arvia’s innovations Nyex™ water treatments include systems capable of removing many organic compounds including APIs, antibiotics, steroids, hormones, EDCs (Endocrine Disruptors) and recently banned organic chemicals. All these types of recalcitrant compounds can be removed to below trace levels.

Water Reuse

Arvia’s water treatment systems are designed to remove many persistent chemicals that other systems struggle to remove effectively.
Our tertiary systems are an essential polishing step in a plant’s water treatment train and are essential when planning a Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) strategy.

Blowdown Water Treatment

Some blowdown water treatments leave behind recalcitrant compounds; also, sometimes a blowdown does not reduce COD to levels low enough for immediate reuse. Either way, Arvia’s specialist systems can offer a viable and cost-effective fix, complementing and augmenting your existing water treatment solutions.

Why choose a Nyex water treatment process?

Our Nyex water treatment systems are used for tertiary wastewater polishing or for removing specific organic compounds. In terms of pharmaceutical wastewater treatment, we can remove APIs, antibiotics, hormones, steroids and EDCs, as well as surfactants, corrosion inhibitors and biocides to very low levels. This makes them very suitable for use in life sciences companies which manufacture pharmaceuticals or APIs and require removal of hazardous compounds to below the contaminant’s Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC).

Our Nyex water treatment processes have been designed to tackle the wastewater issues faced by the life sciences sectors, with these key benefits:

1

Cost Effective

Nyex™ systems have no moving parts and require minimal maintenance compared with other water treatment systems, leading to a long working life with low OpEx.

2

Removes Organic Chemicals

Recalcitrant organic chemicals can be removed to very low levels enabling discharge of wastewater to sewers or watercourses.

3

Treatment of APIs

A unique combination of adsorption and electrochemical oxidation ensures targeted treatment of APIs, antibiotics, steroids, hormones and endocrine disruptors.

4

Ethical and Sustainable

Nyex™ systems do away with the need for expensive and environmentally harmful incineration of wastewater or toxic compounds.

5

No Chemical Dosing

Nyex™ require no chemical dosing, meaning safer factory conditions for operatives and no COSHH regulations to consider.

6

No Waste Byproducts

Nyex Rosalox™ water treatments have a unique adsorptive media which regenerates in situ meaning no toxic sludge is produced.

7

No Downtime

No waste and no sludge also means no downtime to replenish adsorptive media. So unlike some GAC systems, Nyex™ can continue to work 24/7.

8

Flexible, Modular System

Treatment units can be placed in containers or mounted on skids for easy factory positioning. Our treatment reactors are modular so additional units can be brought in quickly to increase capacity.

9

Plug and Play

Powering up a Nyex™ system is as simple as throwing a switch. There are no complex start-up procedures, making these systems ideal for batch processing in smaller facilities.

World Leaders in Water Treatments for Animal Health Product Manufacturing

What is important to you is also important us. And if that means supporting your validation or verification requirements, we’ll be with you all the way. We understand the need for low-risk solutions so when you work with Arvia, we deliver this unique three-step process:

1

Bench testing in our
laboratories

We test your water against a range of our products to determine the ideal treatment, performance and efficiency under different conditions, providing insights to support our optioneering process.

2

Pilot testing on your
premises

We install a pilot plant to assess and develop the water treatment process under real-world conditions to capture variable various operational scenarios.

3

Data driven full scale
design

Our Data-driven full scale design increases certainty over cost and performance early in the design process, reducing risk to you. On-site installation, commissioning, and optimisation support from Arvia ensures maximum operational efficiency, protecting your investment,

Industrial Wastewater Treatment Services for Animal Health Product Manufacturers

Our solutions for Manufacturers of Products for Animal Health have been specially developed to meet some of the specific needs of this sector. Some are detailed below:

Removal of APIs

APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) can be removed to below the limit of detection. These include:

  • Antibiotics

 

  • Steroids

 

  • Hormones

 

  • Endocrine Disruptors (EDCs)

 

Remember our Nyex™ technology requires no toxic chemical ‘tip-ins’ and produces no toxic sludge – meaning no removal or incineration costs.

Optioneering

To ensure the best solution for your installation we review the performance of different technologies in our lab to find out how they interact. We also offer on-site pilots, meaning we discover how our technology works in ‘real life’.

Avoiding the high costs of incineration

Using incineration as part of a waste management strategy is often a last resort – or in some cases, an admission of failure! Incineration is unnecessarily expensive and also carbon-intensive, especially for wastewater of low calorific value.

Arvia Technology can provide better and more cost-effective solutions to remove many toxic contaminants from wastewater using our innovative technology. This allows wastewater to be discharged to sewers or watercourses within current regulations.

Our systems’ innovative design allows treatments can be run on a batch basis to allow compliance monitoring to take place. This allows significant savings in admin and operational costs compared with incineration.
