Rainwater treatment

As an important source of fresh water, rainwater needs to be treated for pollutants such as bacteria, organic matter and suspended solids when collected. The choice of treatment scheme depends on the purpose of water use (drinking water/non-drinking water) and the characteristics of target pollutants. Its low TDS characteristics significantly reduce treatment costs.

Core treatment technology combination

Multi-stage filtration

Removal of oxidized metals, turbidity, salmonella and spores

Applicable to drinking water and non-drinking water scenarios

Ultraviolet disinfection

Inactivation of bacteria/viruses/fungi, elimination of protozoa and odors

Chlorination disinfection

Control of Giardia, dissolved iron and manganese and pathogens

Ultrafiltration (UF) system

Interception of 0.01 micron algae, colloids and high molecular polymers

Operating pressure is 50% lower than RO

Engineering application value

Reduce groundwater extraction by 40%

Relieve regional drought and flood disaster risks

Save 30% of industrial water cost

Modular system maintenance frequency ≤ 1 time/quarter

Silica control technology for industrial water systems

Pollution risk analysis

Ionic/colloidal silica causes severe scaling in high-pressure boilers and cooling systems:

Glass deposits are formed on steam turbine blades (efficiency attenuation ≥ 15%)

Heat exchanger heat transfer efficiency decreases by 20-40%

Cooling tower concentration circulation system is blocked

Directed removal solution

▶ Ionic silica treatment

Using hydroxide-regenerated strong base anion resin

Special resin achieves ppb-level deep removal

Configure glass fiber reinforced plastic/rubber-lined steel corrosion-resistant pressure vessels

PVC valves and end-face pipes resist strong alkali corrosion

▶ Colloidal silica control

Ultrafiltration (UF) interception ≥ 0.05 micron colloidal particles

Coagulation-clarification process achieves pretreatment removal

Technical selection criteria

Pollution form Optimized technology Removal limitations

Ionic (dissolved silicon) Special ion exchange/RO/EDI Mechanical filtration efficiency <20%

Colloidal (suspended silicon) Ultrafiltration/coagulation clarification Ion exchange is ineffective

Project implementation benefits

Silicon content in boiler feed water ≤ 10ppb

Turbine scaling risk reduced by 90%

Cooling system concentration ratio increased to 8 times

Mixed bed system regeneration cycle extended to 1200 bed volumes
