Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology

Clients in the global pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical-device, and consumer-health industries must maintain strict compliance across facilities and geographies while also addressing complex environmental issues throughout their supply chains.

As a leading consultant addressing environmental, health, and safety (EHS) compliance, water and wastewater, pharmaceuticals in the environment (PiE), due diligence, and remediation, Geosyntec helps clients achieve their business goals while upholding their reputations for social responsibility and environmental stewardship.

Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology Specifics

Geosyntec works with clients to develop programs for ongoing operations, including designing environmental management systems. Our practitioners, many with industry experience, are highly knowledgeable about manufacturing processes and can support process engineering, EHS program support and development, pollution control, decommissioning of former or obsolete manufacturing facilities, and transactional due diligence.

For legacy sites, we help clients design innovative and practical environmental remediation solutions, and we optimize existing or underperforming remediation systems. We develop and implement strategic assessment, remediation, and other compliance-related solutions for operational facilities and closed properties, routinely managing the challenges associated with complex waste streams and constituents that are not typical of other manufacturing operations. In fact, Geosyntec led the industry in developing in situ remediation strategies to address sulfa drugs and barbiturates as contaminants of concern in soil and groundwater.

Our in-house laboratory provides physical and chemical testing to help screen and select remedial technologies and to effectively monitor their performance upon implementation. We also understand the growing challenge of PiE and their potential impact to our aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
