LEADING instrumentation company, Process Instruments is using particle counters to optimise pre-treatment, prolonging the life of Reverse Osmosis (RO) plants.
Using Particle Counters to optimise pre-treatment can save plants thousands of pounds a year.
Optimising pre-treatment systems (clarifiers or filters) is the key to maintaining downstream equipment such as reverse osmosis, demineralisers and boilers.
The particle counter PC2400 provides a level of online, continuous monitoring not possible by using silt density index or turbidity measurement.
The system also uses online, flow through sensors which can be multiplexed to provide real time monitoring of filters, condensates or any other component of the pre-treatment and feedwater systems.
Dr Craig Stracey of Process Instruments said: ““Many companies suffer with poor pre-treatment affecting the plant downstream. The PC2400D allows operators to really see what’s happening, and therefore optimise the pre-treatment with remarkable financial benefits.”
Process Instruments, which operates globally, is based in Burnley, Lancashire and is dedicated to providing solutions to problems in the water, waste, chemical and paper industries. Clients include Georgia Pacific, St Regis, Rhodia, Bristol Water, Northumbrian Water, Urenco and Dow Chemicals.
