Qingdao Conqinphi Environmental Technology Group Co., Ltd., a leading manufacturer established in 2015 with over 200 employees and a factory spanning 10,000-30,000 m², presents our Pharmaceutical Industry Zero-Discharge High-Salt Wastewater Treatment System specifically designed for API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) processes. This system achieves complete zero liquid discharge (ZLD) by recovering both purified water and valuable salts, reducing environmental impact and operational costs. With annual export value exceeding US$10 million and certifications including ISO9001, ISO14000, HACCP, and OHSAS18001, we deliver reliable, customized solutions for global pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Our system addresses the critical challenge of treating high-salinity wastewater generated during API synthesis, where conventional biological treatment fails due to salt toxicity. It integrates advanced membrane pre-treatment, multi-effect evaporation, and crystallization technologies to separate water and solids, ensuring compliance with stringent discharge regulations and enabling resource recovery. The entire process is automated, energy-efficient, and designed for continuous operation in demanding pharmaceutical environments.
Below we describe the key features, technical specifications, and benefits that make this system a superior choice for pharmaceutical wastewater management.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Zero-Discharge Design: Complete elimination of liquid waste through evaporation and crystallization, recovering ≥98% of water as distillate for reuse in non-potable applications.
- High Salt Tolerance: Capable of treating wastewater with TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) up to 200,000 mg/L, including complex salt mixtures (NaCl, Na2SO4, NH4Cl, etc.).
- Modular & Customizable: Available in skid-mounted or containerized configurations for easy installation and scalability. Flow rates from 1 m³/h to 100 m³/h can be tailored per client requirements.
- Advanced Pre-Treatment: Includes multimedia filtration, ultrafiltration (UF), and nanofiltration (NF) stages to remove suspended solids, organic compounds, and divalent ions before evaporation, protecting downstream equipment.
- MVR (Mechanical Vapor Recompression) Evaporation: Energy-efficient technology that recycles latent heat, reducing steam consumption by up to 60% compared to traditional multi-effect evaporators.
- Automated Control: PLC-based system with HMI touchscreen, real-time monitoring of temperature, pressure, conductivity, and flow. Optional remote access via SCADA for centralized management.
- Anti-Fouling & Corrosion Resistance: All wetted parts made of 316L stainless steel or higher-grade materials (e.g., duplex stainless steel) to withstand aggressive brine conditions and minimize scaling.
- Low Maintenance: Self-cleaning mechanisms (CIP cycles) and robust design reduce downtime. Standardized spare parts simplify servicing.

Benefits to Your Pharmaceutical Facility
- Regulatory Compliance: Meets local and international zero-discharge standards (e.g., EPA, EU directives) and avoids penalties associated with high-salinity discharge.
- Resource Recovery: Reclaimed water reduces freshwater intake by up to 90%; recovered salts can be sold or used in other processes, creating additional revenue streams.
- Reduced Operating Costs: Energy-efficient MVR technology lowers power consumption; automated operation minimizes labor; low chemical dosing (anti-scalants only) saves consumables.
- Enhanced Production Capacity: Eliminates bottleneck caused by wastewater accumulation; continuous treatment allows API lines to run at full capacity without shutdowns for waste disposal.
- Environmental Stewardship: Zero-discharge dramatically reduces industrial footprint, supports corporate sustainability goals, and enhances brand reputation.
- Fast Installation & Commissioning: Modular design reduces on-site civil work; our team provides full installation supervision, startup, and training.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the typical salt concentration range your system can handle?
A: Our system can treat wastewater with TDS from 30,000 mg/L up to 200,000 mg/L. For extreme cases beyond 200,000 mg/L, we offer customized designs with pre-dilution or multiple crystallization stages.
Q2: How does the zero-discharge system differ from conventional treatment for API wastewater?
A: Conventional biological treatment fails at high salt concentrations. Our system uses physical-chemical processes (membrane + evaporation + crystallization) to separate water and solids, achieving complete zero liquid discharge regardless of salt content. It also recovers valuable by-products.
Q3: Can the system handle organic solvents or API residues in the wastewater?
A: Yes, we include advanced pre-treatment (e.g., nanofiltration, activated carbon, or advanced oxidation) to remove organic contaminants before evaporation, preventing fouling and ensuring distillate quality. For specific solvents, we tailor the pre-treatment train accordingly.
Q4: What is the typical energy consumption per cubic meter of wastewater?
A: For MVR-based systems, power consumption ranges from 50 to 80 kWh/m³ depending on salt concentration and temperature. In multi-effect configurations, steam consumption is about 0.2-0.3 kg steam per kg water evaporated. Our engineers will provide an exact estimate based on your parameters.
Q5: How long does it take to install and commission the system?
A: For a skid-mounted modular unit, installation typically takes 2–4 weeks on site, followed by 1–2 weeks of commissioning and training. Larger custom systems may require longer. Our project management team coordinates with your site schedule.
Q6: Do you provide after-sales support and spare parts?
A: Absolutely. We offer a standard 12-month warranty, remote monitoring and technical support via internet, and a global network of service partners. Spare parts (e.g., membranes, seals, pumps) are available from our warehouse in Qingdao or local distributors.
Q7: Can the system be integrated with existing wastewater infrastructure?
A: Yes, our systems are designed for easy retrofit. We provide flanged connections for inlet/outlet, and the PLC can interface with your existing DCS or SCADA via Modbus or Profibus protocols.
Q8: What certifications does Conqinphi hold for quality and environmental management?
A: Our company is certified under ISO9001 (quality), ISO14000 (environment), HACCP (food safety – relevant for pharmaceutical applications), OHSAS18001 (occupational health & safety), and additional standards like TL900, QS9000, SA8000, ISO17799, etc. All systems are manufactured in compliance with these standards.
