Water Concern: Cement production requires water as the key binding ingredient through the process of hydration. The water to cement ratio is crucial to determining the success of the cement by producing strong and durable consistency. However, due to the binding role water plays, it must be in its most purified form to prevent other chemical reactions from taking place. If the water contains enough amount of a particular contaminant, the essential binding effect would be mitigated by the potential reaction between certain contaminants and the cement ingredients.

Applied Solution: An industrial reverse osmosis plant was recommended to purify well water for cement manufacturing. The complete purification process consists of six steps. The first is the pre-chlorination unit designed to decrease bio-fouling potential of the following systems. Secondly, a coagulant is provided to reduce the organic and colloidal fouling components in the water. Then, a feed pump pressurizes the water into a multi-media filter which removes the turbidity along with suspended solids of the water. Next, a dechlorination system is required in addition to antiscalant dosing to prepare the water and prevent it from scaling the RO membranes. Finally, the water passes through the RO system to produce 380,000 GPD of ultimately purified water. This industrial RO plant was specially containerized to provide a fully mobilized system.
