Water – our elixir of life
The UN estimates that by 2050 the current world population will climb from roughly 6.6 billion to 9.2 billion. Yet average
water consumption, currently 625 m2 per year, is growing on a per capita basis, meaning that the water consumption will rise
disproportionately. More than a billion humans lack clean drinking water worldwide. In 25 years as many as 6 billion humans
will suffer from unsafe water supplies.
The demand for improved water quality has been a fundamental need since time immemorial and is also a precondition for
optimal results in various aspects of work and life. The technological and legal requirements for optimal water treatment are
constantly rising.
The BWT – Best Water Technology Group was formed in 1990 and today is Europe’s leading water technology company. The
goal of our 2,500 employees in 70 subsidiaries and associates is to provide private, industrial, business, hotel, hospital and
municipality customers with innovative, ecological and efficient technologies that deliver a maximum safety, hygiene and health
in their daily contact with the elixir of life, water.

CHRIST AQUA –
Partner for Turnkey Solutions in the Pharma & Biotech Industry
Water is the most widely used material within the Pharma & Biotech Industry. Most processes require water and other clean
media which meets legal standards defined in pharmacopoeias. CHRIST AQUA provides systems of pharmaceutical water
from the feedwater supply to the point-of-use. Furthermore, we offer complete sterile manufacturing systems including
solution preparation, CIP/SIP and wastewater inactivation.

Comprehensive Services for Successful Projects
Concept studies
International experience and practically-oriented construction of
standard and customer-specific systems form the basis for good
overall concepts.
Staff members who are familiar with the latest regulations and
directives of all applicable authorities ensure that the current FDA
and GMP requirements are implemented.
Planning and dimensioning
The spectrum of available services includes mass balance consi-
derations with the aid of the most modern tools, pressure drop
calculations in distribution systems, 3D design, P+I diagrams with
the generation of the corresponding parts lists, on-site inspection
of the planned site and the inclusion of specific requirements.
CHRIST AQUA also has novel approaches to reducing the quan-
tity of water wasted from a system and the power consumpti-
on, thus increasing the economy of clean media generation and
distribution.
Validation and documentation
In the beginning of a project a Quality & Project Plan is set up
to show the Quality Control in the project, together with scope,
responsibilities, communication routes, submittals etc. This docu-
ment is given to the customer for approval.
The water treatment systems are validated according to FDA,
cGMP, GAMP, USP and Ph. Eur. requirements. CHRIST AQUA
also follows the ISPE Engineering Baselines for Water and Steam
Systems, and Commissioning and Qualification. The systems are
CE-marked.
Skid-mounted systems leave the factory after a successfully exe-
cuted FAT in order to shorten commissioning and validation on
site. The FAT is carried out together with the customer under real
conditions. For turnkey projects, the required equipment skids are
installed as a complete system. Commissioning and qualification
are then performed before the final handover to the customer.

9. BWT – The Water Company | 9
Automation technology
The critical area of automation is handled using only in-house
resources. Unlike many suppliers CHRIST AQUA employs own
specialist departments for the design and construction of the
control cabinets and for the development and programming of
software. Pre-validated software modules are used for fail-safe
operation in accordance with GAMP guidelines.
HMI visualisation with modern touch-screen panels at the unit
level, process visualisation via networked PLC structures and PC
visualisation of the entire turnkey project are implemented on a
wide range of platforms. Where customised software is required
the end-users control personnel can work directly with CHRIST
AQUA personnel to prepare this software on a project specific
basis.
Assembly and full production facilities
All CHRIST AQUA factories use the latest technology for the pro-
duction of the systems.
Most of the water treatment systems are manufactured with the
aid of orbital welding machines (for stainless steel (316 L) appli-
cations) and BCF machines (for PVDF applications), if necessary
under cleanroom conditions.
The final assembly of the systems in the factory, including com-
missioning and the FAT (carried out together with the customer)
results in pre-qualified complete systems.
IQ, OQ, SAT and training
After erection of the systems the IQ (Installation Qualification) is
verifying the installation, the OQ (Operational Qualification) the
correct functionality. After completion of IQ/OQ the SAT (Site
Acceptance) is carried out together with the customer.
Training of the operating personnel in the individual system func-
tions and more complex applications makes it easier to handle
the system and to ensure reliable and trouble-free operation.

Scope of Services
By the integration of all process steps, CHRIST AQUA offers its customers a complete concept extending from project identi-
fication, validation and production up to commissioning and start-up, training, customer services and operation of plants.
