Upgrading Purified Water Systems For Pharmaceuticals To Today's Standards

Just a few short years ago, the majority of water system designs being installed were new systems that either replaced an existing system or met new demands. Recently, a shift has occurred as older systems are being upgraded instead of replaced. The trend towards upgrades is driven by many different issues affecting the pharmaceutical industry at this time. Water is the most widely used substance in a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility. It is used for cleaning and as a raw material for drug production. If an upgrade to a water system is designed properly, the system can become a competitive advantage for a company without requiring a substantial capital expense.
