One of Netsol Water most popular products, the Commercial RO Plant, frequently comes in traditional variants. UV sterilizers, water softeners, antiscalant dosing systems, multimedia filters, and activated carbon filters for pre and post-treatment, can all be added to these systems.
Now, let’s understand the stages of a commercial RO Plant!
How many Stages of Commercial RO Plants?
Salts and other pollutants are removed by commercial RO plants. Microorganisms can also be rejected by it. The following are the main traits of these RO plants:
1. A frame with a powder coat.
2. Pre-filter for eliminating silt.
3. A stainless steel body.
4. A high pressure pump.
5. Reject and Product Flow Meters in FRP Pressure Vessels.
6. Alternate between low and high pressure.
7. High rejection TFC membranes.
Working stages along with processes
Initial Treatment
· Water clarification
· Sand filtration
· Softening water to lessen its hardness
· Activated carbon filters used to filter the water
· Using cartridge filters to remove any remaining suspended particles
Post-Treatment
· Ozonation
· Ultraviolet
· Chlorination systems
Pre-filtration (microfiltration and activated carbon adsorption), purification (RO Plants), and post-filtration are typically the three phases of complete solutions.
Pre-Filtering aims to protect the purification membranes!
Hazardous particles are removed using adsorption filters and micron filters; a string wound filter element with a pore size of 5 microns is enough. An activated carbon (AC) filter adsorbs the chlorine, eliminating the taste and odour.
Purification or membrane separation
To get rid of the contaminants, utilization of RO Plants is necessary.
Post-filtering (re-introduces essential minerals)
After purification, the permeate is chemically tasteless and just mildly acidic (depending on the quality of the source water). A good alkaline pH level of greater than 7 is attained by passing the permeate, through an 8 mm mineral cartridge (Ca, Na, K, Cl, Mg, Fe, Zn, Cr).
Based on your water pressure and flow rate, the permeate absorbs these minerals to provide wholesome and enticing drinking water.
Now, let’s talk about the various types of filters used in Commercial RO Plants.
MGF (Multi Grain Filter)
This structure is composed of three media layers, comprising garnet, anthracite coal, and sand. There is a gravel layer at the base. The bottom has denser media, whereas the top contains less dense media.
The bottom holds the smaller contaminated particles, while the top holds the bigger polluted particles. Particles between 15 and 20 microns in size can be eliminated.
Pressure sand filter
Raw water is initially treated by filtration units connected in series, before feeding the commercial RO plant. A pressure sand filter is used to filter out suspended particles and turbidity from raw water.
Activated Carbon Filter (ACF)
It is employed to purge water of organic debris, chlorine, and chloramines. The major ingredients of ACF are wood, coal, and nutshells. It typically uses an adsorption approach to remove contaminants. Chlorine and chloramine residue on the carbon filter are removed, by transferring electrons from the carbon filter to the residue.
Antiscalant dosing system
Chemicals are added to the water to prevent scale from accumulating on the RO membrane. Antiscalants work by absorbing scale and forming salt crystals, which inhibits the attraction of saturated pollutants to crystal surfaces. This prevents scale development.
Micron Filters
A series of micron cartridge filters includes cartridges with a 20 micron, 10 micron, 5 micron, 1 micron, 0.45 micron, and 0.2 micron pore size. This cartridge must be changed after a predetermined number of days of use.
