Water treatment services encompass a range of solutions vital for ensuring clean and safe water for various applications. From advanced software solutions to in-depth membrane autopsies and comprehensive water analysis, these services play a crucial role in optimising water treatment processes and minimising operational costs.
Antiscalant software, exemplified by Proton®, has revolutionised the design and operation of reverse osmosis (RO) systems. By considering membrane properties, flux rates, and scale kinetics, Proton® enables informed decision-making, leading to significant cost reductions and increased productivity. It accurately calculates boron and arsenic rejection, designs pre-treatment coagulation and post-treatment degasification, and identifies powerful indices for optimal system performance.
Membrane autopsies are indispensable for diagnosing and mitigating membrane fouling and scaling issues. A comprehensive analysis involves over 20 specific tests to determine the cause of fouling and scaling, allowing for tailored solutions to decrease operational costs and extend membrane lifespan. With meticulous testing procedures, including visual inspections, membrane performance testing, and advanced microscopy techniques, membrane autopsies provide actionable insights for improving system efficiency.
Water analysis, facilitated by innovative lab simulations like ROSSEP®, offers a reliable method for validating antiscalant dosages based on precise data. By replicating real-world conditions and accurately predicting scaling potential, ROSSEP® streamlines plant operations, reduces chemical usage, and enhances overall productivity. The process involves collecting water analysis, synthesising concentrate water, and optimising antiscalant dosages based on trial results, ensuring optimal performance in RO and nanofiltration systems.
Water treatment services, including antiscalant software, membrane autopsies, and water analysis, are essential for maintaining efficient and cost-effective water treatment processes. By leveraging advanced technologies and comprehensive analytical techniques, these services help mitigate fouling and scaling issues, optimise chemical dosages, and ensure the delivery of clean and safe water for various industrial and municipal applications.
Product and customer insights
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
