Chemicals for Reverse Osmosis Plants
The process of using reverse osmosis water treatment technology to purify drinking water has been around for decades. But now, there’s an increasing demand for RO treatment chemicals for maintaining high quality RO plants.
What is Reverse Osmosis and how RO Chemicals work?
Reverse osmosis or membrane filtration, is a method of removing dissolved solids from water by forcing it through a semi-permeable membrane. This membrane allows only water molecules to pass through while retaining larger particles such as salts, minerals, and other impurities. Suspended solids, micro-organisms and mineral scales foul membranes causing loss in output and/or rejection levels and reducing total system performance. Reverse osmosis chemicals reduce deposits, impurities, and scale from membranes. These treatment chemicals range from antiscalants, anti-foulants to membrane cleaners and disinfectants that keep membrane surfaces at optimal performance including cost, convenience and environmental impact. Chemtex RO treatment chemicals enhance operational efficiency, optimize membrane life expectancy and are certified non-toxic by FDA approved laboratory for testing of product toxicity. Also commonly used in desalinization plants where fresh water is needed. These chemicals are also used in industrial applications where large volumes of water need to be purified.
Chemicals for RO plants
There are two main types of RO chemicals; ion exchange resins and membrane materials. Ion exchange resins are used to remove ions such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, chloride, sulfate, nitrate, bicarbonate, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and fluoride. Membrane materials are used to separate molecules based on size. Chemtex chemicals for RO plants range from antiscalant liquid, anti-foulant to membrane cleaners and disinfectants that keep membrane surfaces at optimal performance including cost, convenience and environmental impact.
