How Industrial Reverse Osmosis Improves Water Quality
Wastewater treatment in industrial settings can be achieved by using Reverse Osmosis (RO). Water
quality improves because it removes up to 99% impurities.
(firmenpresse) - Many and varied industrial processes require the utilisation of water that meets a range of
strict criteria. But just as water fed into the plant system must be of a quality acceptable in
that sector, so too must the waste generated needs to adhere to environmental standards and
regulations. To achieve this, purification and treatment before and after the process may be
necessary.
One of the popular methods used in an industrial setting is reverse osmosis (RO). Water quality
improves significantly after treatment using this method.
Understanding the Process
Reverse osmosis is a purification method that removes dissolved solids and other dissolved
contaminants. The filtration process uses the application of high pressure to force effluent
through a semipermeable membrane. The membrane is rolled in a manner similar to a paper towel
roll, and wastewater exits the membrane from the opposite end of the incoming flow. Purification
takes place as the liquid moves through the membrane. The purified water is collected in a storage
tank.
RO water quality meets both environmental and industrial standards because the purification
process removes 95% - 99% of impurities, including copper, sodium chloride, and calcium, to mention
a few.
Below are a few benefits of using this process in an industrial setting.
1. There are economic benefits for manufacturing (and other industrial) companies treating their
own wastewater. RO water quality is of the highest level, since the system removes a very high
percentage of dissolved contaminants. This means that the purified effluent can be reused to carry
out other industrial processes. In addition, it can safeguard the company against supply threats
such as droughts, price increases, and other environmental issues.
2. Recycling and reusing water (relating to the point above) can provide significant economic
advantages. This can redirect expenditure to other departments, reducing operational costs and
increasing profitability.
3. In the case of industries that cannot reuse treated wastewater, it can be released back into
the environment because RO water quality meets the required environmental standards and regulations.
The treated effluent can be discharged safely into municipal drainage systems, streams, and
rivers, enhancing the ecosystem without harming animal and plant life.
In addition to the above benefits, this method of purification is also beneficial in the
following ways:
It’s an eco-friendly way of treating industrial effluent, which means it protects the
environment.
It doesn’t involve the utilisation of hazardous chemicals, which means the only chemicals
present in wastewater are generated during industrial processes – so that’s less hazardous
wastewater.
The impurities are captured and disposed of safely, reducing contamination and pollution.
It reduces energy and water costs drastically and improves plant efficiency.
It can remove up to 99% of dissolved solids, suspended particles, and bacteria.
The treatment of wastewater used in industrial processes requires methods that guarantee
adherence to environmental regulations and standards. The highest level of purity can be achieved
by the installation of an RO water quality system, as long as it’s installed by a reputable company
experienced in an industrial environment.
