Water Wastage in RO + CAT + ANI + MB (Regenerative) V/S RO + MB (Non-Regenerative)

Water Wastage in RO + CATION + ANION + MB (Regenerative)

Regeneration period: After every Five days
Vessels: Cation, Anion & Mixed Bed
Water wasted per regeneration of cation
(After every Five days) 12,000 Ltrs
Water wasted per regeneration of anion
(After every Five days) 12,000 Ltrs
Water wasted per regeneration of Mixed Bed
(After every Five days) 12,000 Ltrs
Water Wastage due to RO Reject
(Per Hour of RO Operation) 4000 LPH
Water Wastage in RO + MB (Non-Regenerative)
Regeneration period: Not Required
Vessels: Mixed Bed
Water Wastage due to RO Reject
(Per Hour of RO Operation) 4000 LPH

In RO + CATION + ANION + MIXED BED (Regenerative Resin), water is waster during regeneration of the
system. Per regeneration almost 36000Ltrs water is utilised (After every Five days). RO System Reject will
be 4000 Litres per operation of system.

In RO + MIXED BED (Non-Regenerative Resin), Non-regenerative resin is used in the Mixed Bed system
which does not require any water for its resins regeneration. Resin is to be directly replaced after 3 years.
RO System Reject will be 4000 Litres per operation of system.

Since the reject water from the system (as shown in above table) is to be diverted to Effluent Treatment Plant
(ETP). ETP capacity required for RO + CAT + ANI + MB (Regenerative) System will be much higher as
compared to RO+MB (Non-Regenerative) System.

Total Yearly Operation Cost for System 2,29,750

It is clearly seen from the above chart that Yearly Operation cost of RO + MB (30”X75”) (Non-
Regenerative)is less than the yearly cost RO + CAT(18”X65”) + ANI (18”X65”) + MB(16”X65”)
(Regenerative) System.

Yearly Saving Will be Rs.1,87,587 if system with Non-Regenerative Resin is installed.
