Application context

Define the real duty before selecting equipment.

Cooling-water make-up and side-stream treatment must be coordinated with cycles of concentration, metallurgy, heat load, blowdown and the chemical-treatment program.

Feed-water source

Not publicly disclosed

Capacity basis

Not publicly disclosed; sizing requires make-up flow, cycles and blowdown data.

Water challenge

Conditions that control the process.

Hardness, suspended solids, corrosion and microbiological control within the cooling-water management program.

Target water use and quality

Set the objective at the point of use.

Make-up quality compatible with the cooling-system metallurgy, operating cycles and chemical-treatment program.

Typical treatment train

  1. 01Solids filtration
  2. 02Hardness control where required
  3. 03RO only after a water-balance and concentrate-disposal review

Main equipment and components

  • Media or ion-exchange vessels
  • Automatic valves and manifolds
  • Pressure monitoring

Configurable options

  • Materials, membrane brand, instrumentation and control level
  • Single-train, duty/standby or parallel arrangement
  • Storage, disinfection, polishing and distribution interfaces as required

Utilities and operating assumptions

  • Stable feed pressure, electrical supply and drainage
  • Space for operation, maintenance and chemical handling
  • An approved reject, backwash or concentrate route

Required customer inputs

  • Current feed-water analysis and source description
  • Required flow, daily volume, operating hours and point-of-use demand
  • Target water quality, utilities, destination and documentation requirements

Design objective

Confirm performance against an approved proposal.

Design target only. No water-saving percentage, zero-discharge status or operating result is published.
