Fine Chemicals & Medical
Puragen helps chemical manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies manage product purity, process water purification, VOCs and odor control, as well as other critical filtration needs.
Key processes we help with
Fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries require precise purification to meet strict regulatory standards, protect product integrity and manage hazardous byproducts. Puragen will work to understand exact purification requirements and find a solution optimised for specific process and operational needs.
Puragen’s activated carbon solutions offer reliable contaminant removal, regulatory compliance and process efficiency across a wide range of chemical and pharmaceutical applications, including:
Pharmaceutical and fine chemical production processes require high-purity filtration for active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) recovery, impurity removal and dialysis applications. Puragen’s activated carbon technology provides consistent, high-quality purification to improve product purity and regulatory adherence.
Volatile organic compounds and odors from chemical synthesis, drug formulation and solvent use pose environmental and workplace challenges. Our tailored filtration solutions capture and neutralise these pollutants, ensuring compliance with air quality standards.
Chemical and pharmaceutical production generates wastewater containing organic pollutants, solvents and residual compounds. Puragen’s activated carbons remove these contaminants to ensure compliance with discharge regulations and protect sensitive production environments.
