Aria™ Integrated MF/RO System

Pall Aria™Integrated MF/RO Systems for Cost-Effective Treatment of Plant Make-Up Water.

Water scarcity resulting from man-made and natural influences such as growing populations, expanding industrial usage, climate change, and drought, is a challenge faced by water producers and users worldwide.

High-pressure reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration membrane systems have been used for many years to remove dissolved substances from water, with mixed success. The pretreatment typically used with these processes - conventional (sand) filters with coagulation, followed by cartridge filters - has proven to be ineffective and expensive in the long term. 

On the other hand, when microfiltration is used to pre-treat the water, spiral-wound RO membrane systems are a reliable and cost-effective alternative that has become the technology of choice for many plant make-up water applications.

In addition to choosing the most effective technology, industrial high-purity water users are concerned with maximizing production volume by ensuring the ongoing operation of the make-up water system. If the system comprises components from several vendors, the troubleshooting process can take much longer. When the components of the make-up water system are sourced through a single vendor, the responsibility is clear, and service and support are optimized.
