The issue of Pharmaceuticals in the Environment (PiE) is an increasing public concern.  While manufacturing losses represent a small percentage of the overall API mass entering the environment, the PSCI is committed to addressing localized risks that may occur from pharmaceutical manufacturing operations.  Many companies are requiring that their facilities – and their major suppliers – establish estimates for API mass loss and the resulting Predicted Environmental Concentration (PEC) in the water body that ultimately receives a facility’s wastewater discharge.

The PSCI-endorsed method for estimating API mass loss is to follow a mass balance approach where the API inputs, outputs, and losses are accounted for, allowing the mass entering wastewater to be estimated. The PSCI has developed a set of detailed guidance documents on how to approach the mass balance calculations, including this presentation which will provide an overview of:

• Our approach
• Our methodology
• Real-world examples

We're delighted to be joined on this webinar by:

• Elizabeth Girardi-Schoen, Global Environmental Sustainability Leader at Pfizer
• Jason Rushing, PE, Principal Engineer and PiE Subject Matter Expert at Arcadis
• Nolan Chase, EIT, Consultant and PiE Specialist at Arcadis

Please register by Monday 11 October 2021.

The webinar will be recorded for anyone who cannot attend it live.

We look forward to seeing you there!

There are many actions that a company can take to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

This webinar will provide an introduction to a set of advanced exposure tools that can be used for conducting risk assessments for the discharge of APIs in sludge or wastewater.  The three exposure tools include:

• A tool for evaluating bank infiltration of APIs in surface water
• A tool for evaluating risks to soil and groundwater from the land application of sludge or biosolids
• A tool for evaluating risks to soil and groundwater from the land application/irrigation of treated wastewater

The webinar will instruct the audience under which scenarios the tools should be used and by whom, followed by a detailed, step-by-step instruction of the three tools, including the types of information required from the user, default parameters built into the tools, and how to interpret the results.  There will be time reserved at the end of the webinar for questions from the audience.
