Systems for ZLD to achieve approximately 87.5% Recovery
Each of the Kontek wastewater management systems perform a specific role in a zero liquid discharge process. Learn how each of the Kontek technologies contribute to achieving zero liquid discharge.An existing wastewater treatment system is usually the first step in industrial wastewater treatment when zero liquid discharge is implemented. For continuous operation, our 1400 SERIES is the suitable technology for conventional wastewater treatment.
RO systems are usually the second stage of water purification in implementing zero liquid discharge. RO technology, such as ROKON, lower overall TDS using high quality polyamide-urea barrier which lengthens the life of the membrane and enhances the reverse osmosis process. The purified water is sent back to the industrial process for reuse.
A second RO system is implemented to process the brine reject from the primary RO system. The second RO system is referred to as the brine recovery RO. The brine recovery RO increases the overall wastewater recovery rate when implementing zero liquid discharge.
Atmospheric evaporation is used to process the brine reject from the brine recovery RO system during the zero liquid discharge process. Any remaining water is evaporated to the atmosphere leaving the remaining solids from the brine recovery RO.
Solids from the atmospheric evaporators is sent to the CONREC liquid crystallizer for drying. The drying process reduces the moisture further from the solids lowering the overall weight of the solid waste. The solid waste is then hauled away for disposal. This is the final step in zero liquid discharge.
