Key treatment technologies and typical processes for wastewater in the pharmaceutical industry
1. Features
Pharmaceutical wastewater has the characteristics of large differences in composition, complex components, large amount of pollutants, high COD, low and fluctuating ratio of BOD5 and CODcr, poor biodegradability, many refractory substances, strong toxicity, intermittent discharge, large fluctuations in water quantity, water quality and types of pollutants.
2. Composition
type | source | compose |
Wastewater from antibiotic production | Fermentation filtrate, extracted residual, distillation kettle residue, adsorption waste and catheter waste, etc | It mainly contains mycelium, residual nutrients, metabolites and organic solvents. The concentration of organic matter is very high, COD can be as high as 5000~20000mg/L, BOD can reach 2000~10000mg/L, SS concentration can reach 5000~23000mg/L, TN can reach 600~1000mg/L |
Synthetic drug wastewater | Raw material loss, by-products, organic solvents, etc. caused by many steps and low product conversion rate in the synthesis process | It contains a wide range of toxic and harmful chemicals, such as steroid compounds, nitro compounds, aniline compounds, piperazines and pollutants such as fluorine, mercury, chromium copper and organic solvents ethanol, benzene, chloroform, petroleum ether and other organic substances, metals and waste acids and alkalis |
Wastewater from the production of proprietary Chinese medicines | Cleaning wastewater, separation water, evaporation condensate, and liquid liquid loss water are discharged in washing, boiling, purification and separation, evaporation and concentration, preparation and other processes | Natural bio-organics, such as organic acids, anthraquinones, lignin, alkaloids, tannins, tannins, proteins, sugars, starches, etc |
3. Processing technology
