Customer Challenges
Raw-Water ProblemsMetallic Odor
Unpleasant metallic odor affected water quality and created risks for food processing.
Serious Scaling
High hardness caused deposits, pipeline blockage and frequent equipment cleaning.
Unstable Supply
Frequent municipal water interruptions could not support the daily production schedule.
Limited Space
The factory required a compact system that could fit into the available installation area.
High Maintenance Cost
Repeated pipeline and production-equipment cleaning increased operating expenses.
Customized Solution
Designed for Kano Borehole WaterZhongnuo designed a compact 6m³/h skid-mounted system based on the factory’s limited space, medium water demand and borehole-water conditions. Dedicated oxidation and filtration remove iron and manganese before the RO stage, protecting the membranes and stabilizing the final water quality.
Iron & Manganese Removal
Oxidation and dedicated filtration reduce metal content, discoloration and metallic odor.
Multi-Stage Pretreatment
Multimedia, activated carbon and cartridge filtration reduce sediment, turbidity and organics.
Reverse Osmosis
Industrial RO membranes reduce hardness, dissolved salts and other dissolved impurities.
Antiscalant Dosing
Controlled dosing reduces mineral precipitation and helps protect the membrane system.
Automatic PLC Control
Automatic operation, flushing, level control and protection reduce manual supervision.
Compact Skid Design
Preassembled construction saves space and simplifies transportation and on-site installation.
Treatment Process
Process FlowBorehole Water→Oxidation Dosing→Iron & Manganese Filter→Multimedia Filter→Activated Carbon→Antiscalant Dosing→5μm Cartridge Filter→High-Pressure Pump→RO System→Product-Water Tank
The final process and chemical-dosing parameters must be confirmed from the complete borehole-water analysis.
Main System Configuration
Equipment IncludedOxidation Dosing Unit
Converts dissolved iron and manganese into filterable particles.
Removal Filter
Captures oxidized metals and improves water appearance and odor.
Multimedia Filter
Reduces sediment, turbidity and suspended solids before RO.
Activated Carbon Filter
Reduces odor and selected organic substances in the feed water.
Industrial RO Unit
Reduces dissolved salts, hardness and scaling substances.
Monitoring & Protection
Online conductivity, flow and pressure monitoring with automatic protection.
Project Results
Performance & BenefitsBefore Treatment
- Yellow water with metallic odor
- High iron, manganese and hardness
- Frequent equipment and pipeline scaling
- Unstable municipal water supply
- High cleaning and maintenance frequency
After Treatment
- Clear water without visible yellow coloration
- Iron and manganese effectively reduced
- Hardness and scaling risk significantly reduced
- Stable 6m³/h production-water supply
- Lower pipeline cleaning and maintenance demand
Key Project Benefits
Value for the CustomerStable Water Quality
Consistent purified water supports food production and equipment cleaning.
Less Equipment Scaling
Lower hardness reduces deposits in pipelines and processing equipment.
Reduced Maintenance
Lower cleaning frequency helps control labor and operating costs.
Independent Supply
Borehole-water treatment reduces dependence on unstable municipal water.
Compact Installation
The skid-mounted plant fits the factory’s restricted equipment area.
Simple Operation
PLC automation reduces routine manual intervention and operating complexity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Project FAQCan RO directly treat borehole water containing iron?
High iron and manganese should be removed through oxidation and dedicated filtration before RO to reduce membrane fouling.
Does 6m³/h refer to raw water or purified water?
It refers to the rated product-water output. Feed-water demand is higher and depends on the system recovery rate.
Can the system support food production?
Yes. The process can be designed for food-processing water, but the final water must meet the customer’s production requirements and applicable local standards.
Can the equipment operate automatically?
Yes. PLC control manages water production, flushing, tank levels, alarms and equipment protection.
What information is required for a similar project?
Please provide a complete water analysis, required flow rate, daily operating hours, target water quality, local voltage and installation conditions.
