Reverse Osmosis Desalination Plant
Reverse Osmosis Desalination Plant produce high quality drinking water from seawater. This type of plant has the capability of producing up to 25 million gallons per day of drinking water to industry. Seawater fed to the plant is treated through a rigorous process and finally freshwater is separated from the seawater using reverse osmosis. Today, Desalination plants have been working on number of technologies such as desalination, reverse osmosis, distillation, electro-dialysis and vacuum freezing.
Working
- Seawater drawn from oceans is fed in to plant through specially designed intake structures
- Pre-treatment filters then remove solid matter like sand and sediment from the water
- Filtered sea water is then passed through reverse osmosis process
- The water is passed through ultra-fine membranes where seawater concentrate is left behind
- Desalined water is then remineralized as per the standards
- Seawater concentrate is then returned to ocean through diffuser structure
Technical specifications
The desalination plant produces high quality water with 1.0 to 50 ppm TDS.
In this desalination plant, if, 100 gallons of sea water is fed, 15 to 50 gallons of pure water would be produced.
