INTRODUCTION The modus operandi of a pharmaceutical industry has three main stages: (1) research and development; (2) conversion of organic and natural substances into bulk pharmaceutical substances or ingredients through fermentation, extraction, and! or chemical synthesis; and (3) formulation and assembly of the final pharmaceutical product(4). Chemical synthesis forms the basic process for preparing the compounds that are used today as pharmaceutical products. The manufacture of pharmaceutical compounds through chemical synthesis mainly involves a complex series of batch processes where many intermediate stages are present and many chemical reactions take place sequentially. The processes use various raw materials and generate wastes and emissions(1.2,3) ~'Corresponding authour Mriganka Sekhar Mukhopadhyay Near Sarbamongala Banka Bridge, Bhatchala Para, P.O. Sripally, Burdwan, Pin-713103 e-mail: msmukhopadhyay@gmail.com Phone:09434666881 The wastewaters arise mainly from equipment cleaning other than the usual manufacturing streams, such as pump seal waters, waste scrubbers' wastewaters, boiler blow down and floor washing. The wastewater may therefore be high in biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total suspended solids (TSS), with a wide range of pH from 1 to 116. It is clear that the bulk drug manufacturing industries generate different waste products which are unfavorable to environment. The widespread use of pharmaceutical. drugs for various therapeutic needs resulted in detection of pharmaceutical chemicals in the environment. To keep the environment and ecology unaffected, the generated waste should be treated before disposal to the environment and the rate of generation of waste should also be minimized. 2.0 OBJECTIVE OF PAPER The objective of the present paper is to review the present situation of characteristics and treatment possibility of waste water from different Indian bulk drug industries. 3.0 CHARACTERISTICS OF WASTEWATER FROM BULK DRUG INDUSTRIES Based on study of different common effluent treatment plants of Hyderabad(5,6). average physicochemical characteristics of the bulk drug as well as Formulation are given in table 3.1 and 3.2. Table 3.1 : Typical Physicochemical Characteristics of Centrally Collected Wastewater of Common Effluent Treatment Plant of Hyderabad.(6) Table 3.2 : Typical Characteristics of Wastewater from a Bulk Drug Industry in Hyderabad (the main product being Terbinafine Hydrochloride).(5) Volume 2013-14.

BOD 7000-7500 Jllg/lit Mriganka Sekhar Mukhopadhyay, Soumya Bhattacharyya & Vijay Kumar Dwivedi It is observed from table 3.1 and 3.2, that Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) & Total Suspended Solids (TSS) of the wastewater samples Were found to be very high. The BOD: COD ratio is 0.266 and 0.5 respectively and the pH shows alkaline nature indicating the complexity of the wastewater in both cases. Characteristics of wastewater from a bulk drug industry near Ko-lkata(7) and a molasses fermentation based bulk drug industry rich in organic matter are shown in table 3.3 and table 3.4 respectively. Table 3.3 : Typical Characteristics of Wastewater from a Bulk Drug Industry in Kolkata(7) Table 3.4 : The Average Physicochemical Characteristics of the Raw Effluent from a Bulk Drug Industry of Solapur(8) It is observed from tables 3.3 & 3.4 that the values of BOD, COD & different types of solid are very high. On the other hand pH is very low. 4.0 TREATMENT OF WASTEWATER FROM BULK DRUG INDUSTRIES The wastewater generated during manufac- turing of bulk drugs is treated in effluent treatment plant (ETP), which generates ETP sludge. The wastes of high calorific value, like distillation residue, spent carbon, etc are incinerated, which produces incineration ash. ETP sludge and incineration ash samples are collected from industries and are analyzed for relevant parameters from treatment and disposal point of view. Table 4.1: Treatment option vs. parameter wise removal quality and constraints: Various types of wastewater streams ae generated in the manufacturing of bulk drugs. Also, it was observed that the wastewater streams are very difficult to treat only biologically<5,6)because of high concentration ofTDS, TSS, BOD, COD and low ratio of BOD; COD. Industries are employing energy intensive (oxygen intensive) biological treatment systems for meeting the regulatory requirements. Therefore, considering the observa-tions reported by previous researchers, the aerobic batch reactor(7) approach is suggested for the treat-ment of this type of wastewater effectively. The suggested treatment option is Aerobic biological treatment followed by chemical treatment. However, combination of technologies are required to be applied depending upon the detailed characteristics. 5.0 CONCLUSION There is a large number of Bulk Drug units in India. They use different types of raw materials both organic and inorganic in nature, the former being either of synthetic or of animal & vegetable origins. These industries though use high quality of water but produce strong effluent. The synthesis of organic chemicals produces wastewater consisting of organic and inorganic materials. The waste is usually high in COD, BOD & TDS. The pH is eith~r very low or very high. Some of the units have installed wastewater treatment plants. However, the number of units with pollution control devices is negligibly small in comparison to total number ofthese industries. The bulk drug industries are scattered in a wide area in India. So it is unwise to think about the common effluent treatment plant in all areas, unlike the condition prevailing in Hyderabad where common ETP has been installed to cover a wide range of bulk drug industries. Due to financial constraints of these indus-tries, we will have to find out such a technology that is easy to adopt and economically viable.
