Water Treatment Process D
In the food and beverage sector, water is an essential component in every aspect. Good water is
necessary for effective processing and production, from washing process equipment to adding it
to food and drink goods. Processing and distribution facilities are subject to strict water quality
regulations since food and beverage items have the potential to negatively impact consumers'
health. In order to comply with environmental requirements, used water that exits food and
beverage processing industries must also be treated before being released.
The way that water is treated in the food and beverage sector varies greatly according on the
application. Reverse osmosis, ultraviolet (UV) water treatment, filtration, and deionization are a
few of the most effective water treatment techniques.
Reverse Osmosis
Reverse osmosis is a water purification method that employs a semi-permeable membrane to
eliminate a range of chemical and microbiological impurities. Large particles cannot pass
through the membrane filter's incredibly tiny holes, leaving only pure, drinkable water suitable
for use in food and beverage goods.
Filtration Method
Prior to reverse osmosis, UV treatment, or deionization, filtration is a basic water treatment
technique that uses a range of media to remove certain chemicals and solids from water. It is
perfect for use in food sector water treatment facilities, which frequently handle wastewater
from food preparation, which might include a range of solid and organic waste. Filtration is
frequently employed in conjunction with more involved treatment procedures because it is
unable to remove inorganic particles, salts, or minerals.
De-ionization
In industrial water purification systems, deionization is a typical water treatment procedure. To
extract undesirable minerals and ions and leave behind pure water, water is passed through an
electrically charged resin. It is a popular method for getting rid of calcium, iron, and other
minerals to create high-purity drinking and food processing water.
Settling
A settling system clears water of suspended particles using a tank. Due to their greater density
than the water, these particles sink to the bottom of the tank. Fats and greases, hair, sand, grit,
wood, bottles, and sludge are among the common pollutants that are eliminated by settling. The
latter needs to be routinely emptied since it accumulates on the bottom of suspension tanks.

Cartridge Filter
The cartridge filters must be provided and installed on or just prior to the NF skid.
The cartridge filter housing must be constructed of 316L stainless steel.
The filter housing must be rated for maximum expected operating pressure.
The cartridge filter housing should meet the requirements of its intended use.
Each cartridge housing must have the following:
i. Inlet and outlet pressure gauges
ii. Inlet and outlet isolation valves
iii. Inlet and outlet sanitary sample valves
iv. Drain and vent valves
