Industrial Effluent Treatment Plant: Myths About Reverse Osmosis
Separate the fact from the fiction about reverse osmosis, and discover why it’s the best method
to use in an industrial effluent treatment plant.
(firmenpresse) - Reverse osmosis, also referred to as RO, is a water filtration process used in many industrial
effluent treatment plants to effectively clean wastewater produced during manufacturing. Although
there are other methods of cleaning wastewater, reverse osmosis is becoming a popular solution
to the problem of contaminated effluent, thanks to its effectiveness, affordability, and
eco-friendly nature.
The process is really very simple. An effluent treatment plant that operates this kind of
system uses a high-pressure pump to force the wastewater across a semi-permeable membrane.
It’s important that the membrane be semi-permeable as this is what allows the contaminants
to be filtered out. The high pressure forces the water through the membrane, and particles
such as heavy metals, chemicals, bacteria and more, are captured.
Although more and more industries are using RO in the setting of an industrial effluent
treatment plant, there are still many myths about the method. Here’s the truth about some
common misunderstandings.
RO filters are expensive to maintain: Myth
Many people assume that the filters don’t last that long, and that simply isn’t the case. The
lifespan of a filter depends on a number of factors, such as the conditions of the industrial
effluent treatment plant, the water quality, and how well the system is maintained. In fact,
with regular cleaning and professional maintenance, filters can have a relatively long life.
The average industrial consumer can expect to save with an effective and regularly-maintained
RO system.
The water has fewer healthy minerals: Myth
A common myth is that RO water is demineralised and is therefore not as healthy as other
solutions when re-used. This is false. The special membranes used in the filtration process only
remove certain minerals and, while what’s produced does have a lower percentage of minerals,
some do remain.
It is wasteful: Myth
While early systems may have been more wasteful in the past, thanks to technological
innovations, modern RO systems are very water and energy efficient. There are a number of
techniques used to reduce the amount of water wasted, such as using energy recovery devices and
optimising systems as much as possible. Compared to other methods used in industrial effluent
treatment plants, RO is a more eco-friendly option.
The system is complicated: Myth
It’s true that filtering systems can be complex, however, improved design and automation means
that this technology is pretty easy to use – when installed and maintained correctly, by experts.
Today’s reverse osmosis plants employ user-friendly interfaces and many steps can be automated
to make the whole process as simple as possible within a variety of industries.
If you’re considering switching to or installing an industrial effluent treatment plant that
uses reverse osmosis as its base technology, then be sure to work with an experienced and
reputable company. Their experts will have the knowledge to ensure that you reap all the benefits
of this effective water treatment system. Plus, if you have any questions about what’s fact or
fiction, they’ll have all the answers.
