Wash and rinse
Low TDS final rinse water reduces mineral spotting, rejects and avoidable rework.
Manufacturing process water
Make water quality support production without disrupting it.
From general manufacturing and automotive to electronics and chemical processing, we design around quality, cost and uptime.
UK engineered process waterWhere water is used
Typical manufacturing water duties.
Each treatment route is selected around the process, water quality risk, operating pattern and whole life cost.
Process makeup
Treatment is matched to the chemistry needed for mixing, dilution and production repeatability.
Surface finishing
Controlled conductivity supports plating, anodising and coating quality while rinse recovery can reduce water demand.
Boiler and cooling
Softened or RO makeup helps control scaling, blowdown, chemical consumption and energy loss.
Common challenges
What typically drives the project.
- Variable feed water chemistry affecting finish quality and production repeatability.
- High water, energy, chemical and trade effluent costs across rinse intensive processes.
- Heavy metals, suspended solids or specific contaminants limiting straightforward reuse.
- Unsupported legacy controls and insufficient redundancy creating production risk.
Typical treatment
A joined up treatment route.
- Filtration and specialist media
- Water softening and ion exchange
- Reverse osmosis, EDI and UV
- pH correction and dosing
- Surface water and reuse treatment
The final process is confirmed from representative feed water analysis and required point of use quality.
