Pharma and Formulation
Water for Injection (WFI)
Water for Injection (WFI) is a critical component in the pharmaceutical industry, used for the preparation of parenteral products, for dissolving or diluting substances or preparations for parenteral administration, and for final rinsing of equipment and containers. A WFI tank is a specialized storage vessel designed to hold this high-purity water, ensuring it remains uncontaminated and suitable for use in various pharmaceutical applications.
Some common issues that plants face across WFI tanks
- Temperature variations (+/-5°C from the set value)
- Difficulty reaching desired temperatures
- Water hammering in the Jacket
- Condensate evacuation issues
- Higher energy consumption
Our Solution:
The holistic solution from Forbes Marshall encompasses
This includes Precise control of steam pressure, air temperature (digitally enabled integrated control valve enabling precise pressure reduction and temperature control, with built in steam measurement)
Steam Operated Pump Trap which enables evacuation of condensate under stall (when air temperatures required <100 deg C) eliminating water hammer and the need to open trap bypasses
