Compact and Low-Cost Vertical Modular RO/NF/UF Systems for Defluoridation of Ground Water and Purification of Surface Water
Implementing Organization
Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT)
Project Overview
The cost-effective moderate capacity RO/NF/UF plant is useful for the treatment of water containing high TDS, fluoride, suspended solids, hardness, turbidity and disease-causing microbes in a single step.
The plant is very useful in the small hamlets and fluoride affected remote places
. The operating cost in these plants is about Paise 3-5 per L of purified water generated.
The design also has a feasibility to incorporate more than one membrane modules where in a single feed pump is sufficient to build the required feed pressure.
Provides purified water for small habitats of 10 to 20 hamlets such as schools, colleges and hospitals.
