LIFE PHARMA-DETOX PROJECT

Demonstration of an innovative method for the detoxification of pharmaceutical wastewater from pharmaceutical facilities. This project aims to the development and implementation of an innovative, economically viable and cost-efficient system for the transformation of pharmaceutical compounds, present in wastewater, into non-toxic substances. In this way, the environmental impacts occurring due to poor controlled discharge of APIs in the wastewater sewage system will be eliminated.
