8, raw water pretreatment includes which parts?
A: Raw water pretreatment part: raw water contains a variety of impurities, such as suspended solids, colloids, organic and inorganic substances. In order to ensure the normal operation of the reverse osmosis pre-desalination part of the system, it is necessary to remove the suspended solids, colloids, organics, etc., so that the feed water of reverse osmosis to meet the requirements, so the system is set up in the raw water pre-treatment part.
Raw water pretreatment part includes mechanical filter, activated carbon filter, security filter and other devices.
8.1 Mechanical filter: reverse osmosis equipment on the turbidity of the feed water has high requirements, especially reverse osmosis feed water pollution index SDI value is required to be less than 4, turbidity is less than 1NTU. multi-media filter in the filter media, including five kinds of specifications of the quartz sand and anthracite, used to remove the suspended solids in the raw water and de-stabilization of colloids. Before the raw water enters the mechanical filter, a high-efficiency flocculant is added to more thoroughly remove impurities such as organic matter and colloids from the water. Sent to the activated carbon filter and security filter for further treatment as reverse osmosis equipment feed water.
8.2 activated carbon filter reverse osmosis equipment requires that the residual chlorine content of the feed water is less than 0.1mg / l, so the use of activated carbon filter to remove the residual chlorine in the raw water, to prevent the reverse osmosis membrane contamination. At the same time can further adsorb the organic matter in the raw water. Activated carbon filter filled with refined yeast shell type activated carbon, used to adsorb the residual chlorine in the raw water, organic matter, part of the pigment and harmful substances, to reduce the chemical oxygen consumption COD. activated carbon is widely used in the purification of water for domestic use and industrial water for the food industry, chemical industry, etc. Due to the large specific surface area of the activated carbon, and its surface is full of micropores with an average of 20-30 angstroms, so the activated carbon has a very high adsorption capacity. Activated carbon has high adsorption capacity. In addition, the surface of activated carbon has a large number of hydroxyl and carboxyl groups and other functional groups, which can chemically adsorb organic substances of various natures, as well as electrostatic gravitational force, so activated carbon can also remove humic acid, fulvic acid, lignosulphonic acid and other organic substances in the water, and it can also remove substances such as residual chlorine that are harmful to reverse osmosis membranes and prevent reverse osmosis membranes from being oxidized. Usually it can remove 63%-86% of colloidal substances, about 50% of iron, and 47-60% of organic substances. The process of removing residual chlorine from activated carbon is a simple redox process. This process may cause the activated carbon to break, but the broken activated carbon does not affect the effect of removing residual chlorine, so the effect of activated carbon removing residual chlorine is very strong.

Activated carbon filter utilizes the adsorption property of activated carbon to remove the impurities in the liquid so that the liquid can be purified, and its adsorption capacity is reflected in the following aspects:
1、It can adsorb organic matter, colloidal particles and microorganisms in water.
2, can adsorb chlorine, ammonia, bromine, iodine and other non-metallic substances.
3, can adsorb metal ions, such as silver, arsenic, hairpin, hexavalent chromium, mercury antimony, tin and other ions.
4, can effectively remove color and odor and the pharmaceutical industry to remove the heat source in the water to extend the service life of the exchange resin.

8.3 security filter: security filter belongs to the microfiltration equipment, in the pretreatment system plays a role in the insurance, when the mechanical filter working condition is not normal, in order to ensure that in any case can provide qualified water supply, to prevent particles in the water and pipeline into the pump and reverse osmosis system, specially set up security filter as the last filtering device. When the filter in and out of the enclosure pressure difference is greater than 0.1Mpa when you need to replace the cartridge (due to the filtered media directly into the gap in the microporous membrane, so it is difficult to restore the flux through the acid and alkali cleaning). The structure of the filter can meet the requirement of rapid replacement of the filter element.
Quickly calculate the cartridge over flow: 20 inch 5μ=1 ton/hour, and so on for the others.
