Shengtai makes China facility more efficient

Shengtai Pharmaceutical, a manufacturer and distributor of pharmaceutical-grade glucose products in China, has completed factory improvements providing technological and environmental best practices in its cornstarch facility.

Shengtai says that the improvement of the water treatment program in the production facility has resulted in a significant reduction of protein deposits from its sewage. These technological enhancements led to the removal of three high-power pumps and a cold water tower, which lowered the plant's monthly electricity usage by approximately 8,000 kWh. Additionally, higher plant efficiency was attained through reduced labor costs and a noticeably streamlined production facility.

"These changes will improve our factory's efficiency and provide cost reductions," said company chief executive Qingtai Liu. "We are dedicated to improving our technology and maintaining a state-of-the-art production facility to ensure the highest-quality products for our customers and the best environment for our workforce," he added.
