Wastewater Treatment for Pharmaceutical & Cosmetics Industries
DAS Environmental Experts develops customized pharmaceutical wastewater treatment and cosmetics wastewater treatment solutions as well as treatment concepts for biotechnology and healthcare applications. Our solutions are designed around specific wastewater characteristics, production processes and treatment requirements.
- Cosmetics Industry
Solutions for Complex Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics Wastewater
Wastewater from pharmaceutical, biotechnology and cosmetics production can contain a wide range of organic and inorganic substances. Depending on the production process, these may include active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), pharmaceutical residues and other trace substances, surfactants, oils and emulsions, dyes, nutrients or suspended solids. Changing production conditions, product changes and varying wastewater volumes can add further complexity.
The appropriate industrial effluent treatment strategy depends on the substances present, their concentrations and the required effluent quality. Rather than relying on a standard solution, we select and combine suitable treatment processes based on the specific conditions of each application.

Broad Portfolio of Wastewater Treatment Technologies
Depending on the wastewater characteristics and treatment requirements, we combine different technologies into an integrated treatment concept:
Biological processes for the treatment of biodegradable organic compounds and nutrients
Chemical-physical processes for the targeted removal of dissolved or suspended wastewater constituents, for example through precipitation, flocculation or flotation
Mechanical processes for the separation of solids from wastewater
From Wastewater Analysis to the Treatment Concept
Effective pharmaceutical, biotechnology and cosmetics wastewater treatment starts with understanding the wastewater. DAS Environmental Experts supports customers from wastewater analysis and process selection through planning and plant implementation.
Laboratory analyses and pilot testing provide a basis for evaluating treatment processes under application-specific conditions. This allows us to determine suitable process combinations and design treatment concepts for the actual wastewater characteristics and operating requirements.

Industrial Wastewater Treatment and Compliance
Production processes, wastewater conditions and regulatory requirements can change over time. Our treatment concepts therefore take both current requirements and future regulatory developments into account, supporting wastewater compliance. Depending on the application, individual treatment stages can be combined or adapted to address changing wastewater volumes, pollutant loads or production conditions.
With our expertise in biological, chemical-physical and mechanical wastewater treatment, we develop solutions tailored to the specific requirements of pharmaceutical, biotechnology and cosmetics production.
