  1. Water Treatment for the Recycling of Process Rinse Water Tony Mitchelmore Wychwood Water Systems Ltd.

  2. Why Recycle Water? • Reduce Operating Costs Cost to buy and discharge 1m3 water ≏ £1.50 • Quality Improvement Final rinsing of the product with deionised water can reduce staining, surface blemishes, lower reject rates by improving coating adhesion and reduce failures due to conductive contamination. • Environmental Responsibility/IPPC/ISO14001 Reducing our industrial water consumption conserves supplies, and minimises damage to water courses and aquatic wildlife by reducing demand for excessive water abstraction. CO2 emissions are also reduced as utility companies need less electrical energy for pumping.

  3. Traditional Process Mains or Deionised Water Final Rinse 1st Rinse Surface Treatment Flow of Work

  4. Methods of Water Recycling • Recycling Deionisation System - incorporating system tank feeding plant comprising an activated carbon filter, to prevent fouling of resins and a twin-bed filter deioniser . • Reverse Osmosis -possible, but not practical due to high reject rate from plant and pre-treatment needed by RO.

  5. Rinse Water Reclaim & Recycling System

  6. Water-Suitability for Recycling • Only low level of suspended solids, preferably none. No appreciable turbidity, otherwise particulate (sand) filter required. • No oil or other hydrocarbons. • Added conductivity up to 200µS/cm

  8. Effluent Treatment • Recycling plant concentrates ionic contaminants. • Produces small volume (1-2m3, depending on plant size) of effluent at each regeneration. • Heavy metals can be:- Plated out Precipitated Concentrated by RO Evaporated

  9. Regeneration Frequency

  10. Economics of Recycling Water consumption – 30m3/day @ £1.50/m3 = £11,250/year. Plant cost - £10,000+ depending on size. Payback = 1 year
