The pharmaceutical industry relies on NORIT® activated carbons to purify numerous pharmaceutical products. Our highly controlled manufacturing processes bring activated carbons with purity, consistency, traceability, and auditability.
NORIT activated carbons purify:
- API's (antibiotics, painkillers, steroids, ...)
- Vitamins
- Intermediates
- Diagnostic agents
- Enzymes
And they remove these impurities:
- Synthesis byproducts
- Discolorations and pigments
- Cell residues, oligopeptides, proteins
- Odor compounds
- Impurities from feedstocks
- Metal-containing residues from catalysts
To optimize purification performance and product recovery, you can choose from a range of NORIT product grades offering a variety of adsorptive properties and pore structures.
Fully respecting your need for confidentiality, we’ve developed a method by which you can choose easily the optimal activated carbon grade for your specific process. This method includes:
- Various appropriate activated carbon samples for your screening
- Our '5-step manual' for your R&D to determine the most suitable grade(s) based on your (purification and other) requirements
- Best practices for lab-scale testing
