Innovative Reverse Osmosis Elements Provide High Efficiency, Low Energy Seawater Desalination
The innovative DOW FILMTEC SEAMAXX Reverse Osmosis (RO) elements engineered by Dow Water & Process Solutions (DW&PS) significantly helped industrial power plants and manufacturers across different municipalities in optimizing seawater desalination using minimal amount of energy as necessary. The enhanced membrane chemistry of the reverse osmosis (RO) technology provided sufficent levels and satifactory quality of permeate water for single, double-pass, as well as interstaged desalination methods.
With this breakthrough RO system, Dow Water & Process Solutions has strengthened their mission to provide highly innovative demineralizing and desalination solutions in various industrial applications including industrial water treatment, power generation, food and beverage processing, municipal desalination and water reuse, as well as potable drinking water systems.
On the recent research from the Pacific Institute, seawater desalination costs an average of 15,000 kilowatts per hour per million gallons (3.96 kWh/m3) of water produced, making it one of the most expensive water treatment processes today. The DW&PS has then developed DOW FILMTEC SEAMAXX elements based on energy efficiency and environmental sustainability in delivering filtered, desalinated water for various industrial and even residential uses at a lower cost.
According to Felipe Pinto, DW&PS Americas Marketing Manager, “Turning seawater into high quality, usable water is a growing trend in the Caribbean to overcome the challenge of water scarcity and water shortages.” The DOW FILMTEC SEAMAXX elements offers an ideal and viable industrial water filtration solution for critical applications that require treatment of medium to high total dissolved solids, brine processing, and high salinity brackish water desalination.
