The Engineering Systems of TORAY Ultra Filtration are meant to be applied in different fields associated with water quality treatment problems intensifyingly high in suspended solids and turbidity and also for applications downstream like reverse osmosis (RO) facilities, specific to giving treated water quality that has SDI < 2.5 areas of water treatment.
It has now become a major concern for most industries today since almost all of them have effluent water that is of high TSS (Total Suspended Solids) and turbidity, which then becomes highly responsible for continuous breakdowns and inefficiency in RO systems. The TORAY Ultra Filtration System therefore, very successfully gives treated water quality having turbidity < 0.1 NTU and TSS < detection limit. This means that not only does the life of the membranes increase, but also the cost of operation goes down because there will be less cleaning and chemicals.
With the TORAY Ultra Filtration System, therefore, will now be an added collection into the wide portfolio of Jay Water. It is integrated into their offerings to customers as cost-effective, reliable, sustainable treatment solutions for water. With such unmatched benefits as extended life of the RO membranes, less downtime, and reduced CIP requirement, such TORAY Ultra Filtration invites the user into seamless and cost-effective water management. Choose innovation – choose efficiency – choose TORAY Ultra Filtration.
Project Overview
End customer facing problem in RO due to heavy suspended load from Effluent Treatment Plant treated water. OEM suggest ultra filtration system for guaranteed SDI < 2.5 treated water.
Feed / Permeate water characteristic
| FEED | UF Treated Water | |
|---|---|---|
| TSS | 50 | BDL |
| TURBIDITY | <10 | <0.1 |
| SDI | – | 2.5 |
Benefits to End Customer By TORAY Ultra Filtration
- Increase RO Membrane life.
- Low operation cost due to less CIP.
- Less breakdown in RO.
- Less chemical consumption in Ultra Filtration System.
- only 1:1 time backwash pump.
Final Words
The solution offered by the TORAY Ultra Filtration System can be called an effective remedy to the impacts caused due to industries that discharge high quantities of suspended solids along with turbidity into effluent water. The system reduces TSS to levels below detections and ensures an SDI < 2.5, thus enhancing the efficiency and working lifespan of downstream RO systems. In effect, thus, extensive operational efficiencies are gained, and the savings are in terms of reduced chemical consumption and minimal CIP (Clean-In-Place).
As far as this case study is concerned, integration of the TORAY Ultra Filtration System into the effluent treatment scheme of the end-consumer has had a considerable benefit. The system has consistently delivered high-quality treated water, which has substantially increased membrane life for RO and decreased downtime associated with maintenance issues. Further, this arrangement is simplified into an efficient backwash system (1:1 time ratio), thus minimizing operational sophistication.
The special thing about the TORAY Ultra Filtration System is that it performs incredibly but needs minor modifications from the existing setups of industries. For this reason, this system becomes one of the most important assets for industries aspiring to be sustainable and compliant with rigorous water quality standards.
The ever-increasing pollution scenario, coupled with stringent regulations, makes way for a future perspective with the TORAY Ultra Filtration System as far as water treatment is concerned. Such advanced technology, if adopted, would help industries manage their operation as well as keep considering some contribution towards environmental stewardship. Jay Water takes pride in being the purveyor of such innovative solutions to our clients in their quest for effective water management.
