Cost estimation (Case1-AC140 type)

Production Amount: 2,500 ton/year (7.6 ton/day) as 100% NaCl
Feed: RO concentrated brine containing 6.3% of TDS at 30℃
Output: 21% of NaCl
Operation Availability: 90% (7,884 h/year)
Model: AC140-360 type × 1 lines
Initial Cost: 342M JPY(as FOB Japan, including ED skid, Press unit(casting),Spare parts, Pump,
Pipe, not including Rectifier, Tank, Redesign and drawing fee, Installation cost and Technical service)
Running Cost: Electric Consumption => 609,840 kW/year ( 243 kWh/ ton as 100%NaCl)
35wt% HCl => 14.3 m3/year (1.8 L/Hr)
Membrane => 1.5 M JPY/year (Replacement rate:5%)
Gaskets => 0.4 M JPY/year ( 〃 :5%)
Other Consumables => 0.2 M JPY/year ( 〃 :5%)
Note:
i) As feed solution may contain saturated level of scaling materials, safety filter may be
required as pretreatment.
ii) These information and estimation just for reference to buyer from ASTOM and does not
show any guarantee or future performance.
iii) Details including battery limit should be determined through discussion with ASTOM.
