Industrial filtration solutions for the desalination (pre RO filtration) areas - Water and Wastewater - Water Treatment
The performance of an RO system highly depends on the quality of the protection of the pre-filtration. This is due to the following facts: Efficient removal of suspended solids results in longer operating intervals between chemical cleaning of the RO membranes. Less chemical cleaning cycles means prolonged lifetime for the RO membranes and reduced operating costs. Efficient removal of suspended solids results in reduced fouling of the RO membranes and most importantly, extends dramatically, the overall water recovery.
The Sheaf Filter’s efficient fine filtration is a trustworthy and safe method of pre-filtration for RO membranes. With the capability of handling highly contaminated water without the need for earlier barriers and with filtration performances of about 95% at 1 micron, the Sheaf Filter operates as a full pre-filtration system all by itself.
With guaranteed SDI values of less than 3, small environmental footprint, and its chemical free operation, the Sheaf Filter is the best and most cost effecient filter to be used as a pre RO filtration system. It is also an excellent preceder to any cartridge filter that os used as a final dirt barrier before the RO membranes.
Sheaf Filter construction materials are well suited for use at either sea water or brackish water desalination plants.
