Containerized water treatment plant MINT-ConTech

Functionality

• MINT-ConTech is equipped to remove common undesirable substances from natural water (iron, manganese, arsenic, sulfane, humic and other organic substances) as well as suspended solids, microplastics, bacteria, and viruses – all without the use of chemicals.
• MINT-ConTech uses unique software tools to autonomously regulate and operate the treatment plant, respond to changes within the feed water and ensure safety of operation. Additionally, the software strives to maximise recovery while keeping track of component maintenance.
• MINT-ConTech can be used in smaller communities or industrial zones or as an emergency water source when necessary (repairs, malfunction, environmental disaster). Additionally, it can be used as a mobile water source.

Advantages

• Complex water treatment solution for surface and ground water.
• Easy modification of the process steps to suit specific feed water composition and product requirements.
• Removes undesirable substances conventional processes are not equipped to handle.
• Fully automated operation with remote access.
• Intelligent software tools for economic, reliable, and safe operation.
• Insulated and air-conditioned container for yearlong operation.
• Quick and easy on-site installation.

Containerized water treatment plant MINT-ConTech

Principle and treatment steps

MINT-ConTech can be adapted and modified to address a specific feed water composition or according to the needs of the customer. A general sequence of processes is integrated as follows:

• PUMPING – a feed pump, regulated by frequency converter, ensures the optimal flow through the technology.
• MEDIA FILTRATION – a one-pass or two-pass system of media filtration with optional pre-treatment of the feed water and possible backwashing. Different sorbents can be used to remove specific substances based on the feed water composition.
• ULTRAFILTRATION – perfect removal of suspended solids (an order of magnitude higher than conventional processes) reduces turbidity, as well as colour, micro-organics, colloids and rejects bacteria and viruses. In-line coagulation and feed pre-treatment can also be integrated to remove additional organic substances. An automated system of membrane cleaning and integrity testing is implemented – ensuring safety and reliability of operation.
• DISINFECTION – a secondary disinfecting step can be integrated by adding a medium pressure UV lamp or automatic disinfectant dosing into the product stream.
• SEPARATE CHEMICAL DOSING CABINET – chemicals are stored separately and dosed automatically for maximum safety. Chemical storage can be accessed safely through a separate door.
• NEUTRALIZATION – acid and alkaline wastewater used for membrane cleaning is automatically neutralised before being drained. The containerized unit only produces neutral wastewater, safe for discharge.

Functionality

• Ultrafiltration is advanced solution for water treatment of natural water sources.
• Perfect removal of suspended solids reduces turbidity, as well as colour micro-organics, colloids, microplastics and rejects bacteria and viruses – disinfection by way of filtration.
• Combination of feed pre-treatment (pH, oxidation, coagulation) with ultrafiltration allows removal of additional substances.
• Ultrafiltration is versatile: drinking water, process water, food and power industry, pre-treatment before RO processes.
• Ultrafiltration offers an effective way to water re-use and recycling.

MINT – Membrane Intelligent Technology

Ultrafiltration MINT-UF units are designed according to the concept of “Membrane Intelligent Technology” which combines smart process design with advanced operating software. As a result, the unit is able to operate safely, autonomously control process parameters and perform maintenance while maximising recovery and minimising operating costs.

Functionality

• Spent wastewater from sand filters backwashing and pool overflow is accumulated and recycled by the automated one-stage ultrafiltration MINT-Pool unit with integrated pre-treatment and post-treatment processes.
• Multiple separation and disinfection steps fulfil the multi-barrier concept to ensure the safety of the recycled water.
• Excellent return of investment thanks to 75 % savings in water and 60 % in heating costs.
