UF and RO Implemented to Increase Capacity of Ion Exchange Demineralization System
After the City changed its water source, higher conductivity levels led to more frequent regeneration of this energy company’s existing mixed-bed demineralization system. To address this, UF and RO trailers were initially deployed as a temporary solution. As part of the permanent upgrade, Wigen supplied UF and RO skids with a capacity of 8 MGD, to be installed in the facility’s basement. This required an innovative, space-efficient design to minimize the plant’s footprint while ensuring the equipment fit within the basement constraints.
