Our challenge: demineralized water supply for preform production
We were given the task of designing and implementing a demineralized water supply system. The ultrapure water produced by this system is of crucial importance for the production of preforms, which serve as preliminary products for the manufacture of glass fibers.
Design data
Preparation quantity:
- 2m3/d Permeate
Target parameters:
- Conductivity at 25°C max. 1 µS/cm
Solution & implementation
The production of ultrapure water is a demanding process in which precision and efficiency are of crucial importance. Our ALMA OSMO VE system plays a decisive role here. It undergoes a specialized process to produce a truly pure end product from city water.
1. softening of the municipal water: In the first step, the municipal water is softened using ion exchange resins, which remove dissolved iron, calcium and magnesium cations. This step protects the membranes of our reverse osmosis system from deposits (scaling) and ensures smooth operation.
2. reverse osmosis treatment: The softened water is fed into our advanced reverse osmosis system. Here, dissolved ions and residual compounds are removed from the water to achieve exceptional purity.
3. UV treatment for microbiological safety: The final step involves UV treatment of the water. Exposure to UV light effectively eliminates bacteria and other microorganisms, meeting the highest standards of purity and safety.
Our ALMA OSMO VE technology guarantees that you have a reliable and efficient method of producing high-purity water that meets even the strictest standards. If you would like more information about our ultrapure water solutions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
