01Understand the water

Start with representative chemistry, demand and operating conditions.

02Engineer the process

Select and size treatment around the required output rather than a catalogue package.

03Design for operation

Consider controls, access, redundancy, maintenance and lifecycle cost from the outset.

Process Water Engineered Around Production

Manufacturing sites use water for far more than drinking and washing.

Water can feed boilers, cooling systems, cleaning processes, rinse stages, production equipment, laboratories and finished products.

Different processes require different water qualities.

Hydra-Clear designs and manufactures water treatment systems around the specific manufacturing requirement.

Process Water

Treatment technologies can include:

  • Filtration
  • Water softening
  • Reverse osmosis
  • Ultrafiltration
  • Nanofiltration
  • Ion exchange
  • Demineralisation
  • UV treatment
  • Chemical conditioning

The treatment sequence is selected according to what actually needs to be removed.

Wash & Rinse Systems

Minerals in untreated water can cause:

  • Deposits
  • Water spotting
  • Scale
  • Poor rinse quality
  • Surface contamination

RO or demineralised water can provide controlled final rinse quality where the production process requires it.

Boiler & Cooling Systems

Hydra-Clear can engineer treatment for site utilities including:

  • Boiler make-up
  • CHP
  • Cooling towers
  • Closed cooling loops
  • Heat exchangers

Correct treatment can reduce scale, corrosion risk, chemical demand and water waste.

Production Critical Water

If loss of water means loss of production, the treatment system needs to reflect that.

Options include:

  • Duty/standby systems
  • Duplex treatment
  • N+1 equipment
  • Buffer storage
  • Automatic changeover
  • Remote alarms
  • Critical spares

Existing Plant Optimisation

Older treatment systems may be using more:

  • Water
  • Salt
  • Chemicals
  • Energy
  • Membranes
  • Filters

than necessary.

Hydra-Clear can review the process to identify whether the existing plant can be improved before replacement is considered.

Bespoke Process Systems

Where standard treatment equipment does not suit the process, Hydra-Clear can design packaged systems incorporating treatment, storage, pumping, dosing, instrumentation and controls on a common engineered skid.

Talk to an Industrial Water Engineer

Provide us with your incoming water analysis, required water quality and production demand.

Industrial water doesn't need to be as pure as possible. It needs to be right for the process.

Call 0800 999 6770 or contact Hydra-Clear to discuss your manufacturing water requirements.

Hydra-Clear Process Water

Start with the water. Then engineer the system.

Share the source water, required quality, flow and operating pattern. Our engineers can establish the appropriate treatment philosophy and project route.
