Waste Water Management

Our Waste Water Management System is designed to handle Pharmaceutical  wastewaters including but not limited to:

• Acid/Alkali Rinses
• Oil Separation

Our system selection criteria are guided by four factors, contributing to the size, complexity, and cost of the system:

• Pollutant Type - Effective removal of pollutants from the wastewater
• Pollutant Loading - Minimization of chemical costs/solids handling equipment
• Hydraulic Flow Rates - Determinant in size and capital costs of wastewater treatment system
• Environmental Regulations - Often the leading criterion in design of wastewater treatment processes and systems.

Our treatment system components typically include:

• Coagulation/Neutralization - Chemical reaction stages
• Flocculation/Clarification - polymer addition and solids separation
• Effluent polishing - Sand filters
• Sludge Thickening and Dewatering - Settling tanks and filter presses

Hazardous Waste Management

At Akums,Quality Control Lab following analysis are performed for Hazardous Waste Management.

• Evaluation of solid waste for hazardous constituents including heavy metals, pesticides & organic constituents
• Evaluation of used & waste oil for PCB’S and PAH & Schedule V & VI of CPCB
• Electronic waste as per WEEE / RoHS Directives
• Composition & heat value of wastes
• Leachability studies on wastes
• Analysis of hazardous waste as per
  • Flammability of waste materials
  • Packaging wastes as per EC directive
  • Hazardous waste as per USEPA & EWS-846
  • Instruments used: ICP-MS, ICP-OES, GC-MS, GC-ECD/NPD, GC-TCD/FID, HPLC-UV/RI/Fluoro, FTIR, UV-Vis
