Cooling a Major Pharmaceutical Production and Storage Facility

Designing, Supplying, Installing, and Commissioning a High Precision System

Project Overview

Our team at ADEAREST successfully completed the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of an advanced refrigeration system for a major pharmaceutical production and storage facility. This facility required precise temperature control to ensure the integrity and quality of pharmaceutical products throughout the production and storage processes. ADEAREST provided a turnkey solution that delivered reliable and efficient refrigeration to meet these critical needs.

Scope of Work

The project encompassed the entire pharmaceutical facility, from production areas to cold storage. Our engineering team designed and installed a high-efficiency refrigeration system that incorporated a compressor rack with semi-hermetic screw compressors, air-cooled condensers, and plate heat exchangers. To ensure consistent cooling across the facility, fifty glycol air coolers were installed, supported by an integrated piping system. This refrigeration system was specifically designed to maintain a stable +5^oC in both the production zones and cold storage areas, ensuring that all products are kept in optimal conditions throughout their lifecycle.

Technical Highlights

The high-performance refrigeration system featured cutting-edge technology. Semi-hermetic screw compressors, coupled with air-cooled condensers, ensured energy-efficient operation, while the plate heat exchangers enabled effective heat transfer for cooling. The glycol air coolers were distributed throughout the facility, providing consistent and uniform cooling to meet the stringent temperature requirements.

A Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system with SCADA was integrated into the plant to seamlessly manage the refrigeration system. This advanced monitoring system allows for real-time updates, precise control, and automated management of the refrigeration system. This ensures that the temperature and operating conditions remain within the specified range at all times. The SCADA system also enables the quick detection of any anomalies, improving overall operational efficiency.

Project Success

The installation of this state-of-the-art refrigeration system, combined with automated monitoring and control, allows our client to focus on their core business of pharmaceutical production while maintaining optimal environmental conditions for product storage.

The project is a prime example of ADEAREST's ability to deliver tailored, high-performance refrigeration solutions for critical applications in the pharmaceutical industry.
