What Does Reverse Osmosis Remove From Water - And Will It Remove Bacteria?

Posted by Peter Wood on 21-Sep-2016 08:30:00

Facility managers are an operation’s first line of defence when it comes to water quality. Over time, you may have noticed that your facility’s water quality has declined. You may have discovered worrying and increasing levels of bacteria in the water. Reverse Osmosis is a very effective means of removing many contaminants from industrial water. But how well does it work to remove bacteria? The following article will provide an overview of the reverse osmosis process, including what it does and does not remove.

How To Remove Sodium From Water

Posted by Peter Wood on 13-Sep-2016 10:30:00

For industrial water purification, sodium removal is a rare requirement as it is not present in the mains water supply for most western countries. Sodium can, however, be present in the water supply in some coastal areas around the world and in countries that use a lot of road salt, and is also usually present in water that has been softened.

Deionisers or Reverse Osmosis — How do you make an informed decision?

Posted by Peter Wood on 20-Jun-2016 09:43:00

An increasing number of purified water system users have changed over to RO. This is mostly born about by a desire to get away from the use and storage of regeneration chemicals. A further benefit is the removal of a chemical discharge during regenerations.

The truth is that in many cases conventional Deionisers are still the best solution. There are many users who will always use reverse osmosis because they value the physical barrier and validity that a performing RO membrane provides. However, water consumption and capital cost should always be considered when making the choice.

These Pro’s and Con’s may assist in an informed choice.

How Much Does a Reverse Osmosis (RO) System Cost?

Posted by Peter Wood on 10-Jun-2016 11:14:00

Many industries are realising the benefits of reverse osmosis (RO) water purification systems. However, the main question about them is how much they cost. The fact is that the cost of an RO system will depend on how much treated water is required, and so will vary widely. Generally speaking, industrial reverse osmosis systems can range in price from £11,000 to £29,000.
