Water treatment is a critical aspect of today’s industrial environment where sustainable methods are important to mentioned environmental regulatory practices. Among the newer innovations in industry, Nano-Filtration Membrane for COD Reduction are the most revolutionary. COD indicates Chemical Oxygen Demand and is one of the significant parameters for wastewater management. It indicates the amount of organic pollutants in the water. Very high COD levels can seriously harm the ecosystem along with regulatory challenges for the industries.
This is where nano-filtration membranes serve as a very effective solution. These advanced membranes are designed to selectively remove organic compounds while allowing the essential minerals and salts to pass through. They can efficiently handle different qualities of water; therefore, they are suitable for textile, pharmaceutical, food processing, and chemical industries.
Integration of Nano-Filtration Membrane for COD Reduction would enable industries to manufacture cleaner effluents and have a lower environmental footprint and compliance with stringent discharge norms. They also make operations more energy-efficient and reduce chemical consumption.
At Jay Water, we Celebrate nano-filtration membranes that fulfill the unique needs of Indian industries. With us, make sustainable water management a reality while optimizing cost and ensuring environmental stewardship. Get a glimpse into the future with nano-filtration membranes for wastewater treatment today!
Project Overview
Daily Effluent is generated around 300 KLD from Manufacturing of Optical Brightening Agent Chemical (OBA).
- Parameters of Effluent is COD 5000 ppm, BOD 1050 ppm, TDS 20000 ppm & TSS 110.
- Initially client set up Conventional ETP to treat generated effluent, but due to high TDS value, Biological treatment failed.
- Client have an effluent discharge limit to CETP in terms of parameters, Which is COD<1000 ppm,
- If COD is between 1000-3000 ppm, CETP will charge MEE Operating cost.
- If COD is >3000 ppm, CETP will charge INR 3 per liter charge.
Milestone
- MEE (Multi Effective Evaporator) can be treat the effluent, but very expensive for total effluent.
- Nano filtration Membrane technology is one of the solution to treat this effluent to reduce COD to the desire limit with good amount of recovery.
- TSS, Turbidity and BOD needs to be control before feed the Effluent in the NF system.
- If it is not in control, Membrane will get chocked and need more frequent CIP to clean it and It will directly affect on life of Membrane.
Nano-Filtration Membrane For COD Reduction
- Client Equalize the effluent in Equalization tank, and effluent pass through filter press and directly feed in NF system through Bag Filter and Micron Cartridge Filter.
- Due to high TSS value, CIP frequency is once after 8 to 10 hours of operation
- Finally, the purpose of Effluent treatment is successful with NF System.
- Final concentration of NF System goes to MEE with minimum Quantity and operational cost is practically viable
| PARAMETER | FEED | PERMEATE |
|---|---|---|

| TDS (ppm) | 20,000 | 12,000 |
| TSS (ppm) | 50 | – |
| Plant Capacity | 300 KLD | – |
| System Recovery | 75-80% | – |
| CIP Frequency | DAILY | – |
| Membrane | TORAY make CSM NF | – |
Summary & Benefit
- Purpose fulfilled with Equalization follow by Filter Press Follow By Nano-Filtration Membrane Technology & MEE on NF Concentrate water.
- Easy to Handle compared to Conventional ETP.
- Less Manpower required compared to Conventional ETP.
- Best technology To Remove diverse MW Organic Mixtures which is cause the COD in effluent.
- Nano-Filtration Membranes are having Hydrophobic surface, which is antifouling in nature. That’s why it can easily remove surface chocking.
- 70% Cost Deduction in Operating Cost with NF System & MEE Combined, Compared to Only MEE.
Conclusion
Integration of Nano-Filtration Membranes for COD Reduction has become an important innovation in industrial water treatment. This case study pronounces the potentially transformative technology especially important to the industries with heightened COD, BOD, TDS, and TSS levels in the effluent. Nano-filtration membranes will solve the operational costs, environmental compliance, and water management issues, providing the answer to modern industrial challenge.
Innovative wastewater solutions of Jay Water have brought phenomenal results for the clients. The client reduced COD from 2,500 ppm to below 350 ppm with a recovery rate of 75-80% by using a straightforward system designed to work together with an equalization, filter press, bag filters, and nano-filtration membranes. This requirement added up with the CETP limits and preservation of effluent to the Multi-Effective Evaporator (MEE) reduced operational costs by 70%.
Performance improvement in the nanomembranes has been enhanced by their hydrophobic and antifouling nature, which reduce fouling and maintenance requirements. By dealing with critical issues such as the need for frequent CIP and effluent variability, the solution revealed manageability and efficiency advantages over conventional ETP setups. Not only manpower requirements were lowered, but also ensured sustainability.
Among the many areas of advanced mem brane solution delivery, Jay Water has established itself as a trusted partner, underscoring its quality commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship. Now any industry is looking for a pragmatic and cost-effective solution for sustainable water management. They are also expected to be environmentally sound as made possible by this nanofiltration technology.
For industries looking to balance operational efficiency and environmental responsibility, Jay Water and its nano-filtration membrane technology represent the future of wastewater treatment. By choosing this cutting-edge solution, businesses can achieve compliance, optimize costs, and contribute to a greener planet.
