Introduction to the Working Principle of Reverse Osmosis Equipment

Released Date: Aug 13,2015 Article Source: Yuanlai Water Treatment
Reverse osmosis is a membrane separation technology that uses pressure as the driving force and the mechanical energy of selectively permeable (semi-permeable) membranes. When the pressure applied in the system is greater than the osmotic pressure of the feed water solution, water molecules continuously pass through the membrane, flow through the product water channel into the pipe, and then flow out from one end. Impurities in the water, such as ions, organic matter, viruses, etc., are retained on the feed water side of the membrane. Then it flows out from the concentrated water outlet end, thereby achieving the purpose of separation and purification. Reverse osmosis water treatment equipment, applying membrane separation technology, can effectively remove charged ions, inorganic substances, colloidal particles, and organic matter from water. It is an excellent device in the processes of high-purity water preparation, brackish water desalination and wastewater treatment. It is widely used in fields such as electronics, medicine, light textile, chemical engineering, and power generation.

  It generally includes a pretreatment system, reverse osmosis device, post-treatment system, cleaning system and electrical control system, etc.

  The pretreatment system generally includes raw water pumps, quartz sand filters, activated carbon filters, softeners, precision filters, etc. Its main function is to reduce the pollution index and residual chlorine and other impurities of the raw water, meeting the feed water requirements for reverse osmosis. The equipment configuration of the pretreatment system should be determined based on the specific conditions of the raw water.

  The reverse osmosis device mainly consists of multi-stage high-pressure pumps, reverse osmosis membrane elements, membrane housings (pressure vessels), supports, etc. Its main function is to remove impurities from water to ensure that the effluent meets the usage requirements.

  The post-treatment system is an additional configuration when reverse osmosis fails to meet the effluent requirements. It mainly includes anion beds, cation beds, mixed beds, ultrafiltrationEDIOne or more of these devices. The post-treatment system can further improve the water quality of the reverse osmosis effluent to meet the usage requirements.

  The cleaning system mainly consists of a cleaning water tank, a cleaning water pump and a precision filter. When the reverse osmosis system is contaminated and the effluent indicators fail to meet the requirements, it is necessary to clean the reverse osmosis system to restore its effectiveness. The electrical control system is used to control the normal operation of the entire reverse osmosis system. Including instrument panels, control panels, various electrical protections, electrical control cabinets, etc.

  The main uses of reverse osmosis equipment:

  1It is used in the production of electronic industry products such as picture tube glass shells, picture tubes, liquid crystal displays, circuit boards, computer hard disks, and integrated circuits?Pure water and high-purity water required for processes such as chips and monocrystalline silicon semiconductors;

  2It is used to produce softened water and desalinated pure water for the feed water of thermal power generation boilers, medium and low pressure boilers in factories and mines.  

    3It is used to produce pure water for large-volume medical parenterals, injections, pharmaceuticals, biochemical products, medical sterile water and pure water for artificial kidney dialysis, etc., which are required by the pharmaceutical industry.

  4It is used for the production of drinking purified water, distilled water, mineral water for the beverage (including alcoholic beverages) industry, brewing water for alcoholic beverages and pure water for blending.

  5The production of domestic water and drinking water from seawater and brackish water;

  6Prepare deionized water for electroplating processes; Pure water for battery (storage battery) production process; Automobiles, household appliances, building materials products

EDI ultra-pure water system

EDI ultra-pure water system

Yuan LaiEDIThe ultra-pure water equipment uses electro-deionization technology.EDIElectrodeionization is a water purification method that combines the dual advantages of electrodialysis and ion exchange. It does not require acid-base chemical regeneration and can continuously and stably prepare high-purity ultrapure water. Under the action of a direct current electric field, ion separation in water is completed. At the same time, water is electrolyzed to generate hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, achieving automatic regeneration of the resin without the need to stop the machine for manual regeneration. The pre-treatment combined with reverse osmosis can prevent oxidized substances from damaging the resin, ensuring stable effluent quality and widely meeting the high-standard water usage requirements of various industries.

Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

The non-negative pressure water supply equipment can be directly connected to the municipal water supply network, making full use of the residual pressure of the original network for superimposed water supply. Fully enclosed operation does not require the construction of a domestic water tank, eliminating secondary pollution. Intelligent variable frequency voltage stabilization, energy-saving, quiet and easy installation, it is the preferred equipment for secondary water supply in high-rise residential buildings and commercial buildings.

Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment is widely used in central air conditioning, floor heating, industrial closed-loop water circulation, and boiler systems. It integrates automatic pressure stabilization, automatic water replenishment, automatic exhaust, pressure relief and buffering functions. It stabilizes the pressure in the pipeline network, eliminates abnormal sounds caused by air blockage, and prevents damage from negative pressure and water shortage in the pipeline. It is an essential supporting equipment for HVAC and circulating water systems.
