TORAY Ultra Filtration Retro-Fitting- Modern infrastructures, especially those in urbanized towns, depend on water treatment systems in one form or the other. Such demands keep rising in their need for good potable water supply only to become higher. The Delhi Jal Board, the agency responsible for supplying potable water to the National Capital Region, had quite an unusual problem in that its Ultra Filtration (UF) system did not work with the desired efficiency and quality because it had been fitted with 99 PES membranes.
However, the solution to such problems ought to improve output, give a better quality of water, and reduce both operating (OPEX) and capital expenditure (CAPEX) costs. This is exactly where the TORAY Ultra Filtration Retro-Fitting came in. It was an advanced and engineered solution design and execution of the retro-fitting operations by Jay Water against these unique challenges.
Replacement of existing UF modules with TORAY membranes improved efficiency of the plant while removing needs for harsh chemical dosing during backwashing like HCL and NaOH. This innovative retrofitting sets a new benchmark for water treatment solution with increased output and improved water quality, along with cost-effectiveness. Jay Water is an application expert in TORAY Ultra Filtration systems, signifying the commitment of Jay Water in sustainable and efficient water management solutions. The capacity a retrofit has to reinvigorate existing systems is shown by this project in modern demands.
Project Overview
Delhi Jal Board is the government agency responsible for supply of portable water to the most of the National Capital region of Delhi, India
- Total Capacity of 4.5MLD or 196m3/hr Plant
- Existing plant is having 99nos of PES Membranes
Integral Screw Industries
- Existing system having 99 nos of Ultra Filtration Membranes, However, customer desire to replace the Ultra Filtration modules to increase the output & water quality with minimal OPEX & CPEX.
- Jay Water helps integral screw in Design, Engineering & Execution of the TORAY Ultra Filtration retro-fitting of complete system to achieve the customer requirement with following advantages. No HCL and NaOH chemical dose at the time of backwash.
Conclusion- TORAY Ultra Filtration Retro-Fitting
While the world is experiencing an increasing trend in the demand for safe and potable water, the need for an efficient water treatment system has grown accordingly. The latest TORAY Ultra Filtration retrofitting project from Jay Water pioneered a new approach in the solution of modern-day water management. Designed to solve the complicated problems of the Delhi Jal Board, this futuristic solution has redefined the potential place of water treatment plants in the efficiency of operations.
The retrofitting of the 4.5 MLD plant involved 99 existing PES membranes removed in the process of retrofitting by TORAY Ultra filtration membranes. These advanced membranes have tremendously improved not only water quality and above production but also provided tremendous operational benefit. With this technology from TORAY, the use of harsh chemicals especially HCL and NaOH during backwashing is eliminated hence a green and cost-effective solution.
There were huge reductions on OPEX through this retrofitting, significant decreases on maintenance costs through the extension of membrane life, reduced chemical consumption, and minimized breakdown in RO systems. Less frequent cleaning-in-place translates into reduced downtime that ensures consistent water supply to the national capital region.
TORAY Ultra Filtration Retrofitting has also proved that existing water treatment systems could be upgraded with relatively little or no major infrastructure changes. By integrating high-performance membranes into existing infrastructures, Jay Water has indeed provided a scalable and sustainable solution for the challenges of modern water management.
For industries and municipalities alike, this project serves as a blueprint for achieving higher water quality standards while optimizing costs. TORAY Ultra Filtration membranes, combined with Jay Water’s expertise, continue to set the benchmark for efficient, sustainable, and reliable water treatment solutions in India and beyond. As water scarcity becomes a global concern, such innovations pave the way for a sustainable future.
