Sustainable Microbial Monitoring

With Real-time Analysis of Pharma Waters

There’s a growing awareness of the importance of environmental sustainability in manufacturing. Demands from governments and consumers are driving positive change towards greener production practices in drug manufacturing.

That’s why pharmaceutical companies are looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact while continuing to provide safe and effective therapeutics.

However, challenges to green manufacturing are numerous in pharmaceutical manufacturing as it requires significant amounts of energy and materials. Detecting microbial contamination with plate counting is one area that requires substantial equipment and generates a large amount of waste that needs processed. Which also means it’s costly. Sustainable microbial monitoring provides a way to reduce materials use and therefore waste processing.

The 7000RMS™ is an on-line analyzer for monitoring microbial contamination in pharmaceutical-grade waters. It is a rapid microbiological method that measures microbial content and reports measurements in real time. It doesn’t require consumables or reagents nor produce hazardous waste. When used in combination with plate counting, the 7000RMS' real-time detection capabilities can significantly improve water quality and ensure that processes avoid costly disruptions.

Sustainable microbial monitoring with the 7000RMS helps pharmaceutical companies meet environmental initiatives and improve manufacturing efficiency by continuously monitoring bioburden levels. This helps to:

  • strengthen water system control
  • optimize sanitation frequency and rinsing time
  • reduce energy consumption and waste generation.

This white paper looks at how the 7000RMS contributes to sustainable microbial monitoring, and its potential for significantly reducing water loop control costs.
