An Industrial RO (Reverse Osmosis) system is a manufacturing plant which purifies contaminated water through the process of reverse osmosis.

The Industrial RO Water plant requires a variety of pre-treatment methods such as softening, dechlorination as well as antiscalant treatment. After the pre-treatment process, a high level of pressure is used to send water through a semipermeable membrane which retains all the contaminants from the water and passes pure water through. Depending upon the concentration of salts and contaminants in the water, energy levels are determined.

On average Calculation, an industrial Reverse Osmosis plant needs 6 kilowatt-hours of electricity to purify 1 cubic metre of water.

RO system helps to purify the contaminated water which can be used for a variety of purposes such as  " Drinking water , Desalination , Wastewater treatment , Concentration of contaminants , Reclamation of dissolved minerals, etc."

Process:- In the RO Water plant, there are two compartments; one which contains high concentration water (for e.g. seawater) and the other compartment contains low concentration water (pure water). Both the compartments are separated by the semi-permeable membrane.

When we apply a high level of pressure on the high concentration water compartment, the water moves into the low concentration compartment through the semipermeable membrane. The water we collect out is called reverse osmosis water.

R.O Plant Components :-

Raw water pump,Activated carbon filter ,Sand filter,Dosing pump ,Micron Filter,High-pressure pump ,RO membrane ,Reject line,Recycling line,RO product line,Control Panel Box,etc…..

The pure water is also called as permeate or product. It is used for various processes or can be stored in a storage tank to be used later.

The control panel box is used to monitor water quality and facilitate operational functions.

The dosing pump prevents the RO membrane from scaling.

Instruments like pressure gauges flow meters conductivity sensors and level switches are provided for proper monitoring of the plant performance.

A CIP system is provided for easy maintenance of membranes.

Industrial RO plant manufacturers usually have various types of RO plants which you can choose as per the suitability.

RO Plant working:-

Step 1: Water is fed to the raw water pump into the sand filter, which removes suspended solids from water.

Step 2: The water then flows to the activated carbon filter for dichlorination.

Step 3:  Water is further passed to a micron cartridge filter for fine filtration.

Step 4: Water is then pumped by a high-pressure pump into the RO membranes.

Step 5: Pure water passes through the membranes, while most dissolved solids do not pass through the membrane.

Step 6: The pure water then passes through the RO product line, and the contaminated water passes through the reject line or recycle line.

Benefits Ro Plant:-

1.it is easy to install and service.

2.The process of reverse osmosis is reliable.

3.It removes ionic salts, non-ionic, colloidal matter, viruses, active and inactive bacteria as well as high molecular weight organic matter.

4.It is a fully automatic system.

5.The water retrieved from the plant is safe to drink.
