Circulation of cooling tower X water, taken into 500L IBC tank:

  • As a result of 1 hour of circulation of the water with an initial TSS value of 134 ppm and initial turbidity value of 49 NTU, it was observed that the TSS decreased to 17 ppm and turbidity dropped to 7.22 NTU.

As a result of the filtration to be performed in the cooling line with Filternox® NTU Terminator filtration system;

  • Lifetime of the tower filling will increase
  • The amount of chemicals used in the system will be reduced
  • The amount of tower blowdown water will be reduced
  • Cooling efficiency will be increased
  • Unnecessary stops / work interruptions will be prevented
  • Operation, maintenance and energy costs will be reduced
  • The cooling line will be protected from particles

Improvement on discharge quality in treatment facilities

If you need to improve the outlet quality of your treatment plant, Filternox® can help you with the NTU Terminator deep filtration solution.

More specifically, Filternox® NTU Terminator can help improving the water quality at long-lasting wastewater treatment plants that have become overloaded or undersized because of population growth and old technology aeration solutions.

INLET OUTLET DRAINAGE
TSS (ppm) 18 2 114
Turbidity (NTU) 1,73 0,37 148

Sea water deep filtration with Filternox NTU Terminator

Sea water deep filtration with Filternox NTU Terminator to improve the inlet quality of UF & RO

We have performed another test with Filternox® NTU Terminator at a customer’s facilities, for one week. They extract seawater where occasionally there is heavy traffic of ships. The test was however carried out during a period with low ship traffic.

Filter 1 with 5 micron filtration level and Filter 2 with 2 micron filtration level were placed before UF and RO to improve working conditions and extend the life of UF and RO systems plus minimising the use of chemicals.

As a result of the filtration tests performed, it was observed that inlet and outlet waters appeared relatively clean. The filters performed very efficient deep filtration and the drainage waters from both were significantly dirty, with a high level of turbidity.

At the outlet of the sea water treatment, turbidity removing efficiency Filternox filters was 41% at the first stage and 68% at the second stage, on average. On the other hand, TSS removing efficiency in a single stage was over 70%.

Using Filternox® NTU Terminator filtration system as pre-filtration before a UF system, we can conclude:

  • The system can filter out peak or high dirt loads that may occur, especially during periods of heavy sea traffic, before they reach UF and RO systems and keep them protected.
  • Performance of UF systems and service lifespan of UF membranes will increase.
  • Thanks to the increase in UF system performance, the dirt load on the RO membranes will decrease and the service life of the RO membranes will also increase.
  • There will be no need to use the cartridge filters after the UF system, before the RO system; or if used, the cartridge life will be much longer.
  • Reduction in the amount of chemicals used in the system.
  • Decrease in maintenance time and expenses.
  • Decrease in the amount of wastewater discharged for the backwashing of UF and RO systems.

Keep your UF and RO systems safe and healthy. Save water and our world!

Is your well water this clean?

Another filtration test has been performed with process well-water at a food company.

After 1 hour of filtration, it was observed that the drainage sample was dark in color and contained a large amount of particles.
Filternox® NTU Terminator is capable of trapping extremely small particles, even smaller than 1 micron.
At the end of this filtration test, Filternox® NTU Terminator decreased the TSS level from 20 ppm to 8 ppm and turbidity from 25 NTU to 3.29 NTU.
