Abstract

The origin and character of pharmaceutical wastewater were summarized in this paper. And some popular disposal technologies used in wastewater treatment of pharmacies were introduced, such as physicochemical disposal process, bio-chemical disposal process and process of deeply oxidation at elevated temperature. All kinds of waste categories, respectively, described the similarities and differences in their approach. It contained the sources of this waste water, the most suitable method and cost. Several mainstream in articles on this treatment method, for a detailed discussion of the process of adaptation to their overall costs and technical bottlenecks were summarized. Meanwhile, operating parameters, residence time, reaction temperature, catalyst, secondary pollution and other technical details are within the scope of the discussion. At last, it gives a prospect of the market of pharmaceutical wastewater in our institutions.
