Company’s fastest tablet coater to date

ACG Engineering, a division of ACG - a leading supplier of integrated manufacturing solutions to the global pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries - is delighted to launch its new Smart Coater X.ONE series, the company’s fastest tablet coater to date.

The Smart Coater X.ONE forms part of a line of coaters ranging from 125 – 2,000 litres, and represents the next level upgrade on ACG’s premium tablet coating system.

Features of the new coater include: a high-performing spray-arm design with external control via infinity handle, a 2.0 spray nozzle which has been developed with an anti-bearding cap, which is now 50% lighter. An automated and integrated design for tablet charging and discharging with inbuilt discharge baffles, as well as advanced wash-in-place (WIP) technology and ACG’s exclusive X•ONE command and control system, which XXX (info on what this is?)

The X.ONE with its easy handling functionality enables flexibility to work with 10-100% batch occupancy, accurate bed coverage with spray arm that can be positioned accordingly. The machine also provides complete wetting of dead spots for faster, safer, and efficient washing of all parts – including extreme corners It is compliant with ATEX, GAMP 5 and 21 CFR Part 11.

Richard Stedman, CEO at ACG Engineering, said: “After a lengthy period of development, we are very excited to announdce the lauhch of XXX his advanced technology allows intuitive, secure monitoring and control.

Each of the four finalists in the category represent an outstanding technical or environmental achievement in the field of industrial water and wastewater.

The ZLD project at ACG’s Dahanu plant recycles and recovers over 95% of water for reuse, helping to meet regulations and alleviate local water stress. The innovative combination of expanded granular sludge bed treatment, anoxic treatment for denitrification, membrane bioreactor and high-recovery RO were deployed. This was alongside advanced vacuum membrane distillation technology, which combines the advantages of thermal distillation and membranes to achieve high water quality at lower energy consumption. The membrane distillation technology used in the plant embodies an industry-changing move by ACG and its partner, industrial wastewater treatment specialist Aquatech. It is the first full-scale plant integrating advanced vacuum membrane distillation for membrane evaporation and an agitated thin film dryer for dewatering. The innovative solution enables ACG to save power and generate 400 Kwh per day of green energy through biomethane production, while achieving ZLD with an optimal energy footprint.

The project at Dahanu is part of a larger water technology and service program implemented across multiple additional sites. The program aims to produce high-quality water for reuse from challenging waste streams by combining biological wastewater treatment and membrane distillation to achieve ACG’s water sustainability goals.

The winners of the 2023 Global Water Awards will be announced at the Global Water Summit in Berlin on 9 May.
