Advantages of Our RO Systems for Industrial Applications

Reverse osmosis is an increasingly popular solution in water purification. In many cases, it has replaced conventional chemical deionisers. RO is popular because it removes the requirement to hold aggressive regeneration chemicals at the client’s premises. It also does not produce a chemical effluent discharge. For many industries, the security of an RO (Reverse Osmosis) membrane is attractive as is the ability to readily validate the performance of the membrane.

Uncompromised Purity

Our Commercial RO System is engineered to deliver water of exceptional purity. By utilizing the process of reverse osmosis, it effectively removes impurities, contaminants, and dissolved solids, leaving you with crystal-clear, fresh-tasting water.

Improved Efficiency

With its high flow rate and efficient filtration process, you can experience swift water purification without compromising on quality. This means faster turnaround times, increased output, and ultimately, a more streamlined and efficient operation.

Cost Savings

By investing in our RO System, you are getting long-term savings. Eliminating the need for expensive bottled water or alternative filtration methods, reverse osmosis system provides a cost-effective solution to meet your daily water requirements.

Unparalleled Reliability

Our RO systems are built with durability and reliability in mind, it is engineered using premium-grade materials and components, ensuring consistent and uninterrupted operation. With our cutting-edge technology and proactive maintenance support, you can trust that your water purification needs will be met reliably, day after day.

What RO Systems We Offer

Our IONMASTER range provides pure water flows up to 30m3/hour. Of robust construction, they give reliable and quality service and use low energy membranes to minimise operating costs. They can be equipped with extensive water quality monitoring and data-logging.

IONMASTER RO 900

Our RO systems are some of the best on the market and operate at a reliable 70% efficiency with low energy membranes. This means that for every 100 L of impure water you put through the water purification system, you get 70 L of pure water to service, which is a pretty good ratio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is higher efficiency always better in RO systems?

You may find some companies promising you 80% efficiency, but you should be careful of these, as it simply means that their systems force the membranes to work harder. The result is that the membranes do not last as long and need to be replaced more frequently, thus reducing the overall cost-effectiveness of the water purification system. You should also be very careful of cheaply marketed RO systems, as not all RO processes are created equal. We have come across bargain-basement systems that have an efficiency of 25% or less. These are simply not worth your money and time.

What pre-treatment is required for RO water purification?

Reverse Osmosis does not work on its own. The purification process is only as good as the pre-treatment of the water that is feeding it. Certain contaminants will damage Reverse Osmosis, including free chlorine, calcium and magnesium.

So you have to pretreat the freed water with activated carbon to remove the free chlorine and then a water softener to strip out the calcium and magnesium before it can be put through the RO system.

If you fail to do this, then the free chlorine in the water will degrade the membrane and let organic contaminants through, and the calcium and magnesium will scale the membrane up, reducing its efficiency and working life.

This is the reason many industries consider Reverse Osmosis to be wasteful, time-consuming and expensive. The conventional alternative is deionisation.

How reverse osmosis works?

The osmosis process is a naturally-occurring phenomenon where less concentrated saline solution tends to migrate to a more concentrated solution. Osmosis occurs everywhere in nature, from our kidneys absorbing water from our blood, to plant roots absorbing water.

A semipermeable membrane, usually made of thin-film polyamide is used to clean water which is pumped past its input side under pressure of up to 15 bar and up to 220 psi in a cross-flow direction. From 15 to 70% of the water that passes through the membrane will do to permeate, while the remainder leaves the membrane as a concentrate containing 99% + of the feedwater TDS.

This type of system will remove 99% of organic and inorganic contamination.

How long does a reverse osmosis system last?

A reverse osmosis system typically lasts 10-15 years for the main unit and frame. This is an approximate lifespan if you will perform regular maintenance of the system.

Professional, Detailed, and Highly Recommended

Having an old De-Alk plant we were in a position to upgrade and went out to tender. Wychwood Water were one of the companies to respond, organising a full site visit and answering all questions fully and in great detail. The knowledge from Wychwood was second to none and any questions we had were quickly answered. Everything from the tender response to install went smoothly without any issues. I would definitely recommend Wychwood Water if you are looking for a comprehensive, professional company.”
