Upgrade Your Filtration System with Glass: Top 5 Advantages
Filtration is an important process in many applications, including water treatment, pool maintenance, and industrial processes. While sand filtration has been the traditional method of choice for many years, glass filtration is emerging as a popular alternative due to its superior filtration efficiency and durability. Glass filtration media is an innovative alternative to […]
Chromium Removal from ETPs using Ion Exchange Resin
WHAT IS CHROMIUM? Chromium is a chemical element that is commonly used in industrial processes. Trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) and hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) are two forms of chromium that are often present in wastewater from electroplating, tannery, and other industries. Both forms of chromium can pose a risk to human health and the environment if […]
Heavy metals removal – Ion exchange and Chemical Precipitation
PRESENCE OF HEAVY METAL IN WATER: Heavy metals such as zinc, iron, lead, mercury, copper, cadmium, and chromium are highly toxic and can cause serious harm to both human health and the environment. These metals can enter water sources through natural processes or as a result of human activities such as industrial processes, mining, […]
Chlorine Dioxide Powder – Better than liquid & generators
Chlorine dioxide powder is a dry chemical compound that is used as a disinfectant, sanitizer, and oxidizing agent. It is commonly used in water treatment, food and beverage processing, agriculture, bleaching applications, and more as a delivery system to generate Chlorine Dioxide solution on-site. When mixed with water, the powder releases chlorine dioxide, which is […]
Importance of Ultrafiltration as a pre-treatment before RO
The need for appropriate pre-treatment to ensure optimum performance of reverse osmosis (RO) systems is well understood. RO manufacturers always recommend certain inlet water parameters in order to ensure optimum performance and membrane life. Any deviance in the parameters causes serious downtimes and damage to production. Conventional pre-treatment is not 100% secure to achieve […]
Iron Removal – Key to long RO Membrane life
Due to incredible advancements in membrane technologies over the years, RO membranes have become a household name in almost all kinds of water treatment applications. Reverse Osmosis is being increasingly used for various applications such as Zero Liquid Discharge, treating process water, water discharge and even desalination of water. With so many industrial […]
The growing importance of ETPs in Textile Manufacturing
Textile manufacturing in India has played an integral part in the growth that our country has witnessed over the past 2 decades. In fact it is an industry that offers much more than what meets the eyes. For starters, it contributes about 2% to the country’s GDP. And as an industry, it is the second largest employer […]
Centralized & Decentralized STPs – Finding the right balance
India’s water crisis is a constant. Although India has 16 per cent of the world’s population, the country possesses only four per cent of the world’s freshwater resources. India is water-stressed due to changing weather patterns and repeated droughts. As many as 256 of 700 districts in India have reported ‘critical’ or ‘over-exploited’ groundwater levels. […]
REDUCING LOAD ON EVAPORATORS – The Hows and Whys
Evaporation is essentially a separation process that takes advantage of the changing physical states of water, or other solvents, from liquid to vapor. It is unique from other separation processes, in that the water is removed from the contaminants rather than the pollutants being filtered from the water. Although widely used in the water treatment […]
DECENTRALIZED STPs – The Way Forward!
Water scarcity is one of the greatest challenges of the century. It affects not only human health and the environment, but also local economies, which depend on water for business, industry, and agriculture. Decentralized Sewage treatment plants are slowly becoming the knight in shining armour, tackling these water scarcity issues, especially in developing […]
