About the project
Basic and detailed engineering, equipment manufacturing, supervision of erection, and commissioning were performed during the project implementation. The water treatment system is designed to operate in automatic mode.
The temperature parameter is one of the key parameters in the membrane technology process. It has an impact on the demineralized water quality and performance of water treatment equipment. Since the temperature of the feed water coming into the demineralization plant was too high for ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis membranes, it was cooled.
Technologies
Heat exchange -> Active carbon -> Ultrafiltration -> Reverse Osmosis
