Summary
Clean TeQ Water were engaged to provide the engineering, procurement and construction of a 0.5ML/d plant in Oman. The plant uses two precipitation stages to remove hardness and antimony and arsenic, followed by Clean TeQ Water’s CIF® technology to remove hardness before water continues to reverse osmosis (RO). The process treats multiple waste streams from the site and produces industrial quality water which is reused as process water.
There are no brine handling facilities on site, so high water recovery was a key requirement. The RO system successfully achieves >90% water recovery, and equipment was designed to be robust and resilient to survive hot and humid Middle Eastern conditions.
