Key Features & Advantages
Industrial BWRO Performance
01
Large 48m³/h Capacity
Provides continuous purified-water production for high-demand industrial projects.
02
High Salt Rejection
Industrial BWRO membranes typically achieve 97%–99% rejection under design conditions.
03
Modular Construction
Factory-assembled membrane trains simplify transportation, installation and expansion.
04
Automatic PLC Control
Automatic operation, flushing, dosing, alarms and protection support unattended operation.
05
24/7 Water Supply
Industrial components support continuous operation when storage and utilities are adequate.
06
Flexible Engineering
Pretreatment, materials, recovery and post-treatment are customized to the project.
Suitable Raw Water
Feedwater Applications
The standard design targets brackish-water sources with TDS from approximately 1,000 to 10,000mg/L. Final engineering must be based on a complete water analysis.
Brackish Well Water
Underground water containing elevated salinity, hardness and dissolved minerals.
High-TDS Groundwater
Groundwater requiring conductivity, chloride and sulfate reduction.
Inland Brackish Water
Non-marine saline water within the confirmed BWRO operating range.
Industrial Source Water
Pre-treated water requiring further desalination for process applications.
Variable-Quality Groundwater
Seasonal water sources requiring enhanced monitoring and pretreatment.
Medium-Salinity Surface Water
Surface water treated only after suitable clarification or UF pretreatment.
Important: This system is not designed for seawater. High-salinity seawater requires a dedicated SWRO system with different membranes, pressure vessels and operating pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions
BWRO System FAQ
How much feedwater does a 48m³/h system require?
At 70% recovery, approximately 68.6m³/h of feedwater is required. The final requirement depends on water chemistry and the approved recovery rate.
Can this equipment desalinate seawater?
No. Seawater requires a dedicated SWRO system designed for much higher salinity and operating pressure.
How should high-turbidity feedwater be treated?
Coagulation and clarification or ultrafiltration should be added before BWRO when turbidity and suspended-solids loading are high.
When should RO membranes undergo CIP cleaning?
Cleaning is normally considered when normalized permeate flow declines, differential pressure rises or normalized salt rejection deteriorates. Decisions should follow membrane-manufacturer guidance and operating trends.
Can the system operate continuously?
Yes. The industrial configuration supports 24/7 operation when raw-water storage, permeate storage, utilities and routine maintenance are properly planned.
