Decontamination systems
Sterilization systems

Liquid sterilization

Continuous thermal treatment for process liquids

ACTINI designs continuous thermal sterilization systems for liquid products used in biotechnology, pharmaceutical manufacturing, fermentation and other industrial bioprocesses.

Applications include:

  • Culture media
  • Fermentation broth
  • Proteins
  • Glucose and salt solutions
  • Active ingredients
  • Peptides
  • Other process liquids

pH Neutralization

Controlled pH adjustment before discharge

ACTINI provides automated batch and continuous pH neutralization systems for decontaminated effluent and other acidic or alkaline process wastewater streams.

Systems can operate downstream of an EDS or treat additional wastewater streams generated by CIP, washdown and cleaning operations.

Neutralization systems

Solutions designed around how you operate

Pharmaceutical manufacturing

Engineered for complex project requirements

Large pharmaceutical projects often require systems aligned with corporate standards for components, automation, instrumentation, documentation and validation. ACTINI works with end users and engineering partners to integrate these requirements into the process design.

CDMOs

Flexible today. Ready for tomorrow.

CDMOs need to support today’s process without limiting tomorrow’s products. ACTINI combines proven platforms with configurable capacity, treatment parameters, automation and expansion options to balance flexibility, project cost and future requirements.

Biotech & bioproduction

Scalable solutions for evolving processes

Biotech and bioproduction facilities often need to scale from development to commercial production while maintaining process flexibility. ACTINI provides systems that can be adapted to changing capacities, utilities, process conditions and facility constraints.

Laboratories & research facilities

Simple integration. Reliable treatment.

For laboratories and smaller facilities, ACTINI offers compact and plug-and-play systems designed to reduce installation complexity while providing automated and traceable treatment.

Our values

BSL Biosafety level

Safety by design

Safety starts with the process For critical applications, safety cannot be added at the end of a project. ACTINI considers treatment performance, containment, monitoring and operating conditions from the earliest design stages to support safe and repeatable operation.

Technology

Engineering rigor

Decisions based on process requirements We believe good engineering starts with understanding the application. Capacity, flow profile, product or effluent characteristics, utilities and operating constraints are considered together to build a technically consistent solution.

ISO - environment

Responsible use of resources

Efficiency is part of the design ACTINI considers energy, water, utilities and equipment footprint as part of the overall process design. Depending on the system, technologies such as heat recovery can help reduce utility demand while maintaining treatment performance.

Checklist

Built for real-world operation

Performance has to work beyond the FAT Our systems are developed with operation, maintenance, accessibility and long-term reliability in mind. The objective is not only to meet the project specification, but to provide equipment that can be operated, maintained and supported throughout its lifecycle.

Why work with ACTINI?

Process expertise

Engineering starts with understanding your process

Selecting the right system requires more than choosing a capacity. ACTINI works with customers and engineering companies to understand the process, effluent or product characteristics, utilities, operating constraints and validation requirements before defining the equipment solution.

Long-term commitment

Support beyond startup

Our involvement does not stop at shipment or commissioning. ACTINI provides preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, spare parts, training, audits and retrofit support to help customers operate and evolve their systems over time.

Validation-ready approach

Designed with qualification in mind

ACTINI systems can be supported throughout FAT, SAT and qualification activities, including protocol definition, biological indicator testing and thermal mapping where required.

North American Support

Global experience. Local project support.

ACTINI USA supports North American customers from early project discussions through installation, commissioning and long-term equipment operation.

Our U.S. presence helps provide closer access to technical support, service and spare-parts assistance throughout the equipment lifecycle.

Right-sized engineering

Standard where possible. Custom where it matters.

ACTINI offers standardized, pre-engineered and custom-engineered systems, allowing the level of customization to match the actual project requirements. This approach helps balance performance, flexibility, engineering effort, lead time and project cost.

From early engineering to long-term operation

ACTINI supports customers and engineering partners throughout the complete project lifecycle.
