Aqua-Nova COMBI unit – Two in One

Industrial AQUA-NOVA® COMBI multi-effect still for WFI and Pure Steam production, showcasing a series of vertical cylindrical chambers with piping and control box, designed for simultaneous water purification processes

WFI Still and Pure Steam Generator in one unit”

WFI and Pure Steam: two similar and yet different fluids

Simultaneous production is possible thanks to the unique Aqua-Nova technology. Here’s how!

Following strong interest from our customers for combination units where Water For Injection and Pure Steam is generated simultaneously. AQUA-NOVA developed its first Combi unit in the mid 90s and whose first unit was delivered in 1995.

The special characteristics of Combi units are producing the required amount of WFI and simultaneously the amount of pure steam needed without affecting the production of distillate.

WFI Stills

3D rendering of the AQUA-NOVA® COMBI unit, a sleek, industrial water treatment system featuring multiple vertical chambers and a control panel, designed for efficient production of both Water For Injection (WFI) and Pure Steam, highlighting its modern and functional design.

Aqua-Nova stills mark a significant leap in distillation technology with reduced steam velocity and enhanced performance. Their robust, reliable design, complete with modulating control valves for all fluids, guarantees optimal operation across all conditions.

Pure Steam Generators

Vertical AQUA-NOVA® Pure Steam Generator displayed in isolation, featuring a tall cylindrical chamber with a control panel and structural framework, specifically designed to produce high-quality pure steam.

Aqua-Nova’s ‘float’ type heat exchangers excel by completely submerging in water, preventing thermal stress that may lead to micro cracks. This design ensures uniform contraction and expansion of tubes and the mantle under consistent steam and water conditions.

Steam Sterilisers

Lytzen has been fully specialized in depyrogenation ovens for over 50 years. What makes Lytzen unique is their highly specialized knowledge in this special application of batch depyrogenation in chambers ranging from 590 liters to about 7000 liters.

Lyophilisers

Lyophilization, commonly known as freeze-drying, is a crucial process in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Maintaining product integrity is key. Mainly used for preservation of biologicals and drug formulation among many other things.

Effluent Decontamination

Industrial effluent decontamination station (mini series) by Pharmtec, featuring a horizontal storage tank and various vertical purification cylinders mounted on a metal frame. The assembly includes intricate piping, valves, and a control panel, constructed from stainless steel for high durability and hygienic standards.

Drawing on its expertise in the field of water treatment and heat sterilisation. Sofinn has through Pharmtec SA developed a new technology (patented) for effluent decontamination without pumps and heat exchangers, meeting BSL requirements for levels 1, 2, 3, and 4 with superior resistance to clogging.

Aseptic Filling lines

The transferring of biopharmaceutical products, such as vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, or gene therapies, from bulk containers into their final dosage forms, which are typically vials, syringes, or other delivery systems is highly regulated and demands precision and sterility to ensure the quality and safety of the final product.
