FILTERATION

Filtration is the process of removing suspended impurities and turbidity from water. ACE AQUA TECHNOLOGIES offers all media, cartridge & membrane filtration technologies.

MEDIA FILTERATION is used as a first step in most water purification systems to remove particulate matter.

Any given filter revolves on the media known as bed to function efficiently. The supporting bed consists of pebbles which hold the media. The vessel has besides the above, distribution and collecting systems and is connected externally to frontal pipelines and valves. The pipe lines function as the system letting into the vessel untreated water, letting out of the vessel the filtrate also for back wash and rinsing. Pressure indicators reveal the given condition of the media to facilitate backwash timing.

We are so flexible that any and every conceivable user requirement is

taken into critical consideration: thus you have a range of down flow, up-flow, vertical and horizontal filters – you name it we have it.

Simple, easy to install, task oriented, user friendly MEDIA FILTERS cater to various end user need.

Types of filters

PRESSURES AND FILTER

Gone are turbidity and un-dissolved solids. This crystal clear water does not impede with any processing; enhances equipment life.

ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER

Dechlorinises, decolourises apart from removing odour, organic matter, excess iron and oil from the untreated water.

IRON REMOVAL FILTER (GREEN SAND FILTER)

Makes untreated water with excessively high iron contents as clear, sparkling water.

DUAL MEDIA FILTER (ANTHARACITE FILTER)

When the silica slip is not acceptable in the filtrate, IT IS PREFERRED.

MULTI GRADE FILTER (GARNET)

Clears high turbid surface water.

MICRON FILTER

Cartridge filters are commonly made by winding fibre around a hollow and slotted tube. As water passes through the fibre towards the tube, particles are removed and held in the fibre.

Membrane filters usually have a sub micron pore size. Membrane filtration includes micro, ultra, nano filtration and reverse osmosis plant.

REVERSE OSMOSIS PLANT

Why Reverse Osmosis

Life without water is impossible contaminated water imperils life and industry. If there is one system of water treatment, which rids off micro contaminants, pesticides, pyrogenics and to a great extent virus and bacteria besides salts and other inorganic contaminants, IT IS REVERSE OSMOSIS.

What is reverse osmosis?

Osmosis allows permeation of certain substances from medium into another medium in between which there is a semi permeable membrane. Whereas in reverse osmosis, raw water is supplied with good degree of pressure which forces that water column into the composite membrane. These membranes with the ability of not allowing contaminants, which are even microscopic in size and feather weight, as low as 200 molecular weight.

The components and design:
In simple terms, untreated water is let into the vessel with a desirable pressure, by which the permeate pipe around which thin film composite membrane is tightly wound, collects product water. The composite membrane acts as a barrier arresting the contaminants in the untreated water. The composite membrane is securely kept in the housing; the housing, built using several materials like SS/FRP and PVC, in such a way that, it is able to withstand the stress of high pressure.

The untreated water instead of directly letting into the housing is routed through high-pressure pump; where from this untreated water gushes into the housing. The inlet-outlet pressure gauges help determine the available pressure at any point of time; besides indicates presence of or onset of clogging. Rotometer indicates both the inflow of untreated water and outflow of treated water. Pressure switch incorporated in the system, ensures safety in case of undesirably high-pressure buildups.

In the reverse osmosis system of water treatment, virtually there is no chemical used. This is indicated especially where the untreated water is of very bad standard including brackish water and even sea water. The maintenance of the system is negligible, as there is no regeneration of the media hence the entire water treatment is of physical nature.

Other systems of water treatment using membrane technology like ultra filtration and nana filtration can be resorted to, for getting treated water for suitable requirements.

ION EXCHANGE

It is the exchanging of ions from feed water by resins.

WATER SOFTENING PLANT

Hard water is all the more hazardous in such equipment or machineries such as boilers and heat exchangers, where the constant and even low heat might cause scaling, which further results in corrosion, pitting and finally choking. All this, means expensive maintenance, high fuel consumption and some times the production/ processing coming to a grinding halt.

Softening is the most commonly used method of removing hardness that is calcium and magnesium from water and render the water suitable for boiler feed, textile processing utility purposes.

Whereas in other sectors, for instance textiles, chemicals, etc., the problems caused by hard water not only disproportionately high consumption of dyes and chemicals but also smudged colours on textiles resulting in ugly patches and streaks.

The water softening plant is an MS/ MS-FRP LINED/MS-RUBBERLINED/ LLDPE/FRP pressure vessel which has closely packed strong acid cation exchanger resins. It is so designed that strainers/headers and laterals/ bell mouth and collecting tank are place at both ends of the resin media, ensuring uniform distribution of untreated water into the plant; retention of minute resin particles. The system is provided with frontal piping and valves to direct flow of water on either side besides to process, rinse and backwash whenever required. The ejector is available of regeneration of resins and backwash as and when required

Hard water upon entering the softening plant comes into contact with the resins. Now an Ion exchange process occurs, when salts such as calcium and magnesium in the hard water are exchanged for sodium salts available in the resins. Thus this is a critical stage in water softening. In course time, the resins lose the sodium content and are saturated with insoluble salts, of magnesium and calcium. This warrants regeneration of resin bed by injecting brine solution, using hydraulic ejector, bringing back resin efficiency.

DEMINERALISER

Water being universal solvent often dissolved undesirable minerals such as calcium, magnesium, sodium salts, etc., which are harmful for industrial applications. The concept of demineralization aims at providing treated water devoid of these dissolved solids.

HOW IT DOES

The process of demineralization revolves around two distinct stages. One in which hydrogen based cation exchange resins chemically react with dissolved salt particles of untreated water and exchange hydrogen ion for cations, leaving water dilute acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, carbonic etc. where as in the second stage anion exchange resins take the anions and provide hydroxyl ions (OH -) thereby leaving just water, which is the treated water. Regeneration of cation and anion resins is easy and simple. This process, reverse ion-exchange basically aims at making the resins, to the original status with acid- alkaline treatment.

There are both standard types and tailor made ones for the given needs. Taking into account, the expected production of treated water quantity and the quality of the available raw water, quantities of resins are arrived at. Based on this resin quantity two vessels made of rubber lined mild steel, with distribution and collecting systems are designed, the first vessel has cation resins wherein raw water is semi processed the second vessel with anion resins, process this water and produces the treated water. Each of these vessel is provided with pipelines, valves, ejectors etc. in such a way that both down flow and upflow of untreated, semi – treated water are made feasible to facilitate water processing and backwashing/rinsing the resins as and when needed.

In our range of products, we are adept in making besides two – bed demineralisers others such as three bed and multi beds etc., to provide the best needed and cost effective plants for you.

DEGASER

Degasifiers form a part of demineralization process. Their role is to reduce the intensify of or ridding away with carbonic acid, i.e., dissolved carbon dioxide which is available in the down stream of cation units. The load on anion units is greatly reduced. Saving operating cost by reducing costic consumption’s. Degasifier comprises a tower, made of MSRL or FRP, air blowers, ss pump, apart from degassed water storage tank installed in between cation and anion vessel.

MIXED BED POLISHER

If there is one method of water treatments to get ultra pure water, then it is from mixed bed demineraliser, as the name suggests, it has both cation and anion exchange resins in a single column vessel, The unique feature in the system, is free blending of cation, anion resin particles. For mixing the resin plant has an air blower, To monitor the product water it has an on line conductivity meter with the other accessories like pressure gauges, valves and ejectors. This plant can be installed as a stand alone or for polishing water from demineraliser/reverse osmosis plants.

When you want nothing else than ultra pure water.
