Water treatment systems have applications in producing potable water, purifying water for manufacturing operations or processing chemicals, creating a safe water supply for irrigation and recreational purposes, and everything in between. To create an efficient, high-performance water treatment system that reliably produces pure water, however, you must start with a quality system design. This will serve as the foundation of your system build, facilitating water treatment for commercial and industrial operations.
The team at Reynolds Culligan Water assists businesses and municipalities through effective water treatment solutions, system design, and application support. We’ll design a water treatment system customized to address your specific needs for water volume and purity levels.
In system design engineering, designers have to account for the arrangement of system infrastructure components like pumps and piping to effectively transfer water from a water treatment facility or related source to the end user. The water systems engineers at Reynolds Culligan will build a system tailored to your specific requirements, selecting and customizing system components for optimal water intake, clarification, disinfection, ion exchange, and distribution.
Calcium and magnesium within water can cause film and scale buildup in appliances, boilers, and piping systems, reducing their efficiency and shortening their lifespan. Water softening uses an ion exchange process to eliminate these and other hard minerals as part of a purification procedure. Water filters through sodium molecule-coated resin beads that trap positively charged mineral ions and the negatively charged beads replace those ions by releasing sodium.
Water softening systems offer multiple cost-saving benefits, such as lessening the need for maintenance and repairs, reducing energy usage, and enabling an efficient clean while using less cleaning solution. To reap these benefits and ensure you have the right softener for your application, consider the volume of water your application handles, the water’s flow rate, its composition, and the amount of softening material you require.
To provide water for industrial applications that’s both potable and safe, water filtration involves the following steps:
Facilities with filter systems can reuse their water. This decreases energy use and raw water demand while increasing sustainability in industrial applications. Systems that incorporate water filtration have the added benefit of lowering maintenance costs. Reynolds Culligan’s efficient, customizable industrial water filtration system options include boiler feed water treatment, cooling tower water treatment, raw water treatment, and wastewater treatment systems.
This treatment technique uses UV light to kill bacteria, microbes, viruses, and other harmful microorganisms in water. UV light penetrates the contaminants and pathogens to break down the structure of their DNA. This treatment adds nothing to the water, so it’s an eco-friendly, chemical-free, and FDA-approved sterilizing method, providing safe water for cooking, cleaning, and consumption. UV light also has no effect on water’s taste and smell.
Reynolds Culligan provides modern UV light treatment systems with the latest technology. They are easy to maintain and are applicable for light commercial environments, temporary residential use, and other water sources such as wells and rainwater cisterns.
Reynolds Culligan’s agency-approved chemical feed systems can effectively handle varied gaseous solutions, and our PULSAtron series is available in multiple models compatible with differing pressure and flow specifications. The guided check valve system in our PULSAtron pumps provides precise, reliable metering using various wet-end materials to meet your application’s chemical requirements.
We also have LMI Pumps capable of delivering accurate chemical metering and dependable dosing. They’re ideal for applications in sectors like general industrial, agriculture, power generation, oil and gas, water treatment, municipal and residential water, and wastewater.
Deionization utilizes ion exchange resins to remove water’s mineral salt contaminants, including anions like chloride and bromide as well as cations like copper and calcium. Depending on the deionization technique and resins you use, you can achieve different levels of purification for applications such as food processing, pharmaceutical or cosmetics manufacturing, laboratory testing, power plant operations, cooling machinery, and more.
At Reynolds Culligan, we have multiple deionization solutions available based on your individual purity requirements, ranging from our Premier Series’ Deionizer Systems to our Polyethylene (PE) and Portable Exchange Deionization (PEDI) Stainless Steel Tanks. When you sign up for our deionized water tank exchange service, you have an array of flow options available for your facility, all with zero maintenance, waste, or up-front costs.
Industrial water dealkalizers use chloride cycle anion ion exchange to remove alkaline ions from water, lowering its pH level. Before starting the ion exchange process, water first undergoes a softener pretreatment to optimize system performance. This pretreatment helps safeguard against deposit development on the anion bed and allows the system to use water more efficiently. During the dealkalization process itself, the exchange utilizes resin of a Type 2 strong base anion to eliminate alkaline ions.
Dealkalization systems facilitate the efficient and safe treatment of water at your facility. Reynolds Culligan can help you with a personalized dealkalizer system to suit your facility’s unique needs.
Using well-designed water treatment systems protects equipment, enhances operational efficiency, and helps companies achieve desired water purity levels and adhere to local and federal regulations. Specifically, the many advantages of properly designed systems for industrial water treatment include the following:
Removing particulates like suspended solids, mineral contaminants, and more helps keep system components from developing scale or clogging. The right design will safeguard against this, allowing your equipment to perform optimally for more efficient operation.
Water treatments successfully remove harmful microorganisms like bacteria and viruses from a feed water supply, resulting in water at a specified purity level. The appropriate system design will produce treated water that is safe to drink and, should any of it leach into the surrounding environment from a water system, it won’t cause illnesses.
In addition to eliminating bacteria and other such contaminants, water treatment systems can also remove any chemicals potentially found in industrial wastewater, which could otherwise be extremely detrimental to living things and the environment. Proper water treatment even supports water conservation, lowers energy consumption, and reduces the greenhouse effect. Treatment systems designed with sustainability in mind can generate reusable water supplies to decrease a company’s total water consumption for more sustainable operations.
Today’s industrial water treatment systems are designed to save you money. By reducing energy use and even providing a renewable energy source, a well-designed system is less costly to run. It also requires less maintenance and repairs, as we build our systems to last and maintain their performance over time.
As every project is unique, Reynolds Culligan will help you determine the amount of water you’ll need for your application by surveying and evaluating the following factors:
