Chemical and pharmaceutical industry

Efficiency, safety and sustainability

The chemical and pharmaceutical industries face unique challenges in safety, air quality and energy management. Ensuring a controlled environment is crucial to both the production of high-quality products and the health and safety of personnel.

At AQ International, we offer total solutions focused on air quality management, energy efficiency and compliance with the strict laws and regulations that these sectors entail.

The five most important services for the chemical and pharmaceutical industry:

Ventilation plan and air quality management

In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, air quality is vital, as certain chemicals or drug components can be harmful to employees’ health. A ventilation plan helps ensure that hazardous substances are properly disposed of and that the air remains clean at all times.

Why is it important for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries?

In these industries, unclean air and the absence of ventilation can lead to health problems for workers and product safety risks. In addition, chemicals in the air can affect the production and quality of pharmaceutical products.

How AQ International helps:

We help create ventilation plans that meet safety standards and ensure safe, healthy workplaces. This includes optimizing air flow rates and removing pollutants so that air quality is maintained at appropriate levels.

Energy efficiency: optimization of ventilation systems

The chemical and pharmaceutical industries use energy-intensive systems that often run 24/7. Therefore, it is essential to improve energy efficiency, especially with rising energy prices. Optimizing existing ventilation systems can on average Save 30% energy, which helps reduce operating costs without compromising system performance.

Optimization of ventilation is possible by renovating air handling units, preserving air handling units with EC fans or making ventilation ducts airtight.

Why is it important for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries?

In an industry where energy consumption accounts for a significant portion of costs, optimizing ventilation systems is critical to reducing energy requirements and improving cost control.

How AQ International helps:

We offer energy audits for ventilation systems and propose customized solutions that help you reduce energy costs through air sealing of ventilation ducts, air pressure settings and optimization of air flow rates.

Cleaning & maintenance of air handling systems.

In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, it is essential to regularly clean and maintain air handling systems to prevent contaminants from accumulating. Contamination in ventilation systems can reduce air quality and even lead to product contamination.

Why is it important for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries?

In manufacturing environments where precision and cleanliness of products are essential, cleaning air handling systems is crucial. Improper air circulation or contamination can affect product quality and cause health risks for employees.

How AQ International helps:

We offer thorough cleaning of air handling systems, filters and ventilation ducts to ensure air quality in your production environments. This improves safe production conditions and product quality.

Inspection and cleaning of cooling systems and evaporators

Cooling systems play a vital role in chemical and pharmaceutical production. Evaporators and condensers in these systems must be cleaned regularly to maintain efficiency and prevent equipment overheating.

Why is it important for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries?

Poorly maintained refrigeration systems can lead to inefficiency and higher energy costs. In an industry where production and processing are often temperature sensitive, it is essential to keep systems well maintained.

How AQ International helps:

We offer specialized cleaning of evaporators and condensers to keep refrigeration systems functioning optimally and maximize energy efficiency. This prevents product damage from temperature fluctuations and reduces operating costs.

Cleaning textile air socks

In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, where air handling and air circulation are of great importance, textile air socks are often used to distribute air flows in production and storage areas. It is essential to clean these air socks every 6 months to ensure optimal air circulation and hygiene.

Why is it important for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries?

Contamination of air socks can lead to poor air distribution and even product contamination. In an environment where hygiene and precision are paramount, cleaning air socks is essential for air quality and system efficiency.

How AQ International helps:

We offer professional cleaning textile air socks that provide efficient air circulation and maintain a hygienic environment in your production areas.

Legionella management mandatory for atomization

Under the Welfare at Work Act, companies must protect their employees from biological agents, including Legionella. Any company that uses atomization (such as showers or non-steam humidification systems) is required to create and maintain a Legionella management plan.
