The ever-changing pharmaceutical drug manufacturing industry has positively influenced the dynamic water and wastewater marketplace in 2006.

This briefing will benefit treatment equipment manufacturers, distributors, turnkey solution providers, operations and maintenance solution providers, along with pharmaceutical drug manufacturer end users who utilize related products and services offered.

Highlights of the briefing include an analysis of the North American total market, brief commentary on segment breakdown, overview of Tier I pharmaceutical drug manufacturing end users, and a summary of the various industry related regulations.

"The stringent regulatory, validation and permit requirements that the pharmaceutical drug manufacturing industry must adhere to, poses a significant set of challenges for both water treatment and wastewater treatment equipment providers," observes Frost & Sullivan's Research Analyst Eric Meliton.
