Polaris Water Distillation Systems

Packaged distillation systems that make highly purified water and water for injection.

Packaged distillation systems that make highly purified water and water for injection.
Overview

The Polaris™ 2.0 product range features two packaged distillation, skid-mounted systems. A multiple effect water system (MED) for the production of hot water for injection (WFI), and a pure steam generator (PSG).

Both guarantee WFI and PS produced fully comply with the European and U.S. Pharmacopoeia, and the PS is in line with the European sterilisation standard EN285. The new validated software also provides peace of mind, by ensuring compliance with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Good Automated Manufacturing Practice 5 regulations.

We know the availability of pure water is crucial to the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. That is why Polaris 2.0 has a robust design that helps to minimise downtime and ensure the availability of high-quality WFI and PS when needed.

 

How does Polaris 2.0 work?

The Polaris 2.0 range technology is based on high pressure distillation and droplet separation. Sanitisation features are available to reduce the risk of microbiological contamination.

The Polaris 2.0 MED is also based on high pressure distillation with falling film heat exchange to speed up the preliminary heating phase. The feed water is also used to partially cool down the produced WFI to optimise energy recovery.

The Polaris 2.0 PSG is based on the interconnected water vessels principle where the industrial steam heats up the feed water to the vaporisation temperature. A thermal degassing option is available for the compliance with the European sterilisation standard EN285. 

Both technologies use high-quality stainless steel in the demister for droplet separation.
