SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:

Raw water before Raw Water Tank is dosed with Sodium Hypochlorite 1 – 2 ppm. Raw water feed pump will

feed raw water from the raw water storage tank to Multi Grade Filter @ 7000 LPH.

Multi Grade Filter is a vertical down flow vessel containing pure graded silex quartz as a filtering media.

The vessel is fabricated in FRP. The water generated at the outlet of Multi Grade Filter will have suspended
solids less than 5 ppm. Multi Grade Filter is provided with Manual Backwash. We have provided manual ball

valves of for change over from normal operation to Backwash operation.

(Note that the inlet suspended solid load should not be more than 50 ppm).

The water from Multi Grade Filter is passed through Softener. Hardness after softener is less than 5 ppm.
Soft Water after Softener unit is fed to Purified Water Generation System.

Sodium Metabisulphite (Na2S2O5) is then dosed in the chlorinated water to neutralize the free chlorine

(excess chlorine) present in the filtered water.

12/3/2020 DQ for Purified Water System - Pharmaceutical Guidance

Antiscalent Dosing System is then dosed in the soft water to avoid scale formation on the RO Membranes.

pH Correction Dosing System is provided to adjust the feed pH of RO feed water as 6.5 – 8.5. The treated
water is then passed through 5 micron Cartridge Filter to trap the suspended solids. This will avoid

chocking of RO membranes due to suspended solids.

ORP Analyzer is provided so as to check the absence/presence of chlorine in the feed water to the RO
System. If free chlorine is sensed in the feed water it will give an indication on the panel & open the

dumping valve and dump the high ORP water for 300 secs. & Even if the ORP value is not below the

set point it will trip the system.

This soft water is then fed to the Reverse Osmosis First pass System by means of a High Pressure Vertical

multistage Pump with SS 304 wettable parts of M/s. Grundfos, Denmark. The First pass Reverse Osmosis

System will generate 2700 liters/hr water with an overall recovery of 70 %. The generated water will have
total dissolved solids less than 150 ppm. The semi-permeable reverse osmosis membrane has molecular

weight cut off less than 150 MWCO. The Reveres Osmosis membrane acts as positive barrier to remove
dissolved solids, organic compounds & bacteria.

The Reverse Osmosis System consists of thin film composite type Reverse Osmosis membrane of DOW.
The material of construction of the RO membrane is Polyamide. The RO membrane is housed in the High

Pressure SS 316L Wettable Parts Housing having TC end connection.

The outlet water of RO pass one is feed to RO pass two system. The Second pass Reverse Osmosis System
will generate 2200 liters/hr of water with an overall recovery of 80%. The generated water will have total

dissolved solids less than 15-20 ppm.

The Reverse Osmosis System consists of thin film composite type Reverse Osmosis membrane of DOW.

The material of construction of the RO membrane is Polyamide. The RO membrane is housed in the High

Since Softener is a Vertical UP Flow Vessel the Hardness causing Ions are removed by passing through

Resin Media (Cation and Anion) which is been 92% filled of the Total Volume. For normal operation the

position of the Ball valves should be:

(In Open position: BV-10, BV-11) & (In Close position: BV-12/13/14/15)

After 12 hrs of operation of the softening plant OR after 72 m3 of OBR the softener should go under

regeneration mode or the hardness does not get maintain within its limit..

2. Regeneration Operation:

WHEN & WHY REGENERATION

Regeneration is used to recharge the Resin to regain its absorbing properties of hardness. Regeneration is

done if the Hardness at the Outlet of Softener Unit is above 5 ppm OR after 72 m3 OBR / 12 hrs of

Operation of plant whichever is earlier. Flow Totalizer will be provided at the outlet of each softener unit to

indicate the amount of soft water generated and give indication of Regeneration after pre define quantity of

soft water generation.

For changing from normal operation to regeneration mode, the valve position should be

(In Open position: BV-12/13/14) & (In Close position: BV-10/11/15)

Allow the softener to backwash completely.

Allow the brine solution to get completely charged in the softener.

3. Slow Rinse Operation:

Slow Rinse is used to get properly mix up with Salts & Resins.

(In Open position: BV-12/14) & (In Close position: BV-10/11/13/15)

4 Fast Rinse Operation:

Fast Rinse is used to remove excess Salts from the resins.
