Efficient Hydrostar RO & UF Modules – Delivering customized, high-performance filtration for superior contaminant removal, water recovery, and purity tailored to specific industrial needs.
What It Does?
Sarvo’s Hydrostar RO & UF Modules are modular, customizable filtration systems combining Ultrafiltration UF) and Reverse Osmosis RO) technologies to treat water and wastewater with precision, designed specifically for client use cases. UF modules act as the frontline barrier, using hollow-fiber or spiral-wound membranes with pore sizes of 0.01 0.1 microns to remove suspended solids, colloids, bacteria, viruses, and macromolecules through low-pressure (typically 1 5 bar) crossflow or dead-end filtration. This pre-treatment step protects downstream processes by reducing turbidity to 0.1 NTU and silt density index SDI) to 3, preventing fouling.
Following UF, RO modules employ thin-film composite membranes under higher pressure 10 80 bar) to reject dissolved salts, ions, organics, and heavy metals, achieving rejection rates up to 99.5% for TDS and producing permeate with conductivity 10 µS/cm. The integrated design optimizes flux rates 15 50 LMH for UF, 20 40 LMH for RO) and incorporates anti-fouling coatings, energy recovery devices, and automated cleaning-in-place CIP) cycles to maintain performance. Customization involves site-specific engineering, such as selecting membrane materials (e.g., PVDF for UF, polyamide for RO) based on feedwater quality, flow rates 1 500 m³/h), and recovery goals 75 95% .
Hydrostar modules handle diverse applications, from brackish water desalination to effluent polishing, integrating real-time sensors for monitoring parameters like pressure, flow, and conductivity. This ensures efficient contaminant separation, high-quality output for reuse, and compliance with standards like WHO or industrial norms, while minimizing waste and energy use through optimized configurations.
