Common Methods of Industrial Water Purification
Learn about filtration, reverse osmosis, dealkalization and other processes to treat water before
and after being used.
(firmenpresse) - Industrial water purification is the process of removing impurities from water to make it
suitable for industrial use. It is essential for many industries including breweries, paper
manufacturing, mining, and food operations. The process can include removing suspended or dissolved
solids, bacteria, and other contaminants. The specific methods used will vary depending on the
quality of the raw water and desired quality of the treated product, and the specific industrial
uses.
Methods of Industrial Water Purification
Filtration: A process involving microfiltration and ultrafiltration, where membranes remove
suspended solids from water by passing them through a porous medium. This method effectively
removes sediment, organic materials, and turbidity. There are a variety of different types of
filtration systems available, including sand filters, multimedia filters, and cartridge filters.
Nanofiltration: Employed for the removal of bacteria from water. This method is particularly
effective in ensuring the quality and safety of liquids used in various industrial applications.
Softening: A process of removing hardness from water, caused by the presence of calcium and
magnesium ions. By removing these minerals, products used in industrial operations are rendered
free from substances that could interfere with other desired outcomes.
Dealkalization: Reduces the alkalinity caused by the presence of carbonate and bicarbonate ions
in water. By controlling the alkalinity, the method ensures the suitability for various
applications, reducing the risk of scale formation.
Reverse Osmosis: Removes dissolved solids by passing the water through a semipermeable membrane.
It is a very effective method of purification, including the removal of salts and minerals to
produce high-quality water suitable for industrial use.
Ion exchange: A process of exchanging not very useful ions, for better ones. This method is
commonly used for the removal of heavy metals and specific molecules from industrial wastewater
so that it can be safely discharged into the local sewage system.
API Oil-Water Separator: Large-scale industrial processes, such as those in oil refineries,
petrochemical plants, chemical plants, and natural gas processing plants, often generate wastewater
containing significant amounts of oil and suspended solids. This technique is employed to
efficiently separate these components, ensuring that the discharged water meets environmental
regulations and is free from pollutants.
Aeration: A method that involves mixing wastewater with a solution of microorganisms. These
microorganisms facilitate the decomposition of organic matter present in the wastewater,
particularly effective in breaking down organic pollutants, ensuring that the water is safe for
discharge into the environment.
UV Sterilisation: A process of using ultraviolet light to kill bacteria and other
microorganisms. It's a very effective method of disinfecting water, but it is not effective at
removing dissolved solids.
Industrial water purification is an important process for many industries because it helps to
protect against risks and rising operating costs. There are a number of different methods
available, and the appropriate application will depend on a number of factors that an expert will
help you identify.
