Challenges:
A leading fertilizer manufacturer in India was looking for a sustainable high-purity water generation system that could produce 6.70 m³/hr of ultrapure water with a conductivity below 0.5 µS/cm. Traditional cation-anion mixed bed systems were inadequate, as they could not meet the manufacturer’s goals for sustainability and operational efficiency.
The Manufacturer required a consistent ultrapure water quality with 24/7 operation, free from fluctuations and required zero wastewater from regeneration to eliminate the need for effluent treatment. To meet their sustainability and operational expectations, the manufacturer required minimal piping, and a fully automated system with no manual intervention required.
QUA’s Solution:
QUA’s FEDI® GIGA technology was deployed to address the manufacturer’s challenges related to complex water treatment systems. The FEDI® Giga is a cutting-edge electrodeionization (EDI) technology designed to produce ultrapure water with a high flow capacity.
As the first electro-deionization stack with three ports—feed, product, and reject—the FEDI® GIGA simplifies integration, significantly streamlining installation and reducing overall system complexity.
The system integrates multiple advanced water treatment technologies, including multigrade and activated carbon filters, two-pass reverse osmosis (RO) for advanced desalination and impurity removal, and the FEDI® GIGA for the final polishing step. The FEDI® GIGA can be seamlessly integrated into an RO skid, maximizing space efficiency and reducing the overall system footprint.
