This manual should provide to you all the information required for operating and maintaining your ROCHEM Reverse Osmosis System. When designing this system great regard has been paid for safety. When working on this or any other system there is always an element of danger, which the owner, operator and technician need to be aware of. Appropriate maintenance minimizes any danger and maximizes availability.
Any work of maintenance or repair, must be carried out correctly. Appropriate technical knowledge as well as any applicable regulations for safety and environment must be provided by the owner, operator and/or the maintenance personnel.
IV. Safety Remarks
F
The fresh water generator must not be operated within harbour area. Or inwaters polluted with oil.
F
When operating this equipment certain parts are electrified. Ignorance of operating procedure can cause death, injury or material damage. ANY WORK AT OR ON THEPLANT MUST ONLY BE DONE BY PERSONS TRAINED ON THE MACHINE AN D FAMILIARIZED WITH THE INFORMATION IN THIS MANUAL. REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE MUST ONLY BE DONE BY APPROPRIATELY QUALIFIED TECHNICAL PERSONNEL.
F
PROTECTION, SUCH AS PULLEY / BELT GUARDS, MAY BE REMOVED ONLYFOR MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR AND MUST BE RE INSTALLED IMMEDIATELY AFTER ANY SUCH REPAI R OR MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
The owner and user, are responsible for complying to all prevailing laws to maintain a safe working environment.
For plant protection please note the following important items:
F
There must not be any visible movement (vibration/pulsation) of the pointer onpressure gauge PI160. If this occurs then one of the following is causing this fault: 1-
Some nitrogen gas has leaked from the pulsation damper. 2- The diaphragm in the pulsation damper is damaged. 3- High pressure pump valves or packing are defective.
F
The PT modules will be damaged, if there is any vacuum in the feed watersupply line or concentrate discharge line.
F
Do not allow any back pressure on the permeate outlet, when there is nopressure on the feed supply, otherwise the membrane cushions will be damaged. Do not allow pressure on the permeate side of the modules when the unit is stopped. The maximum pressure in the permeate line is 3 bar. If a permanent
pressure above this value is required then an additional booster pump will be necessary.
F
The feed pressure to the high pressure pump PP160 must not fall below 0.5 bar.If this happens, the pump will be damaged by cavitation.
F
The membranes are not resistant against chlorine or any oxidizing agent.De-ionized or distilled water in the unit will reverse the flow direction and destroy the membranes.
F
Please take care of the feedwater quality conditions for the membrane module performance. Do not allow to operate the RO unit in areas of river esturiances,especially in regions with low draff where the water can be expected to carry a high amount of suspended solids and silicates. This could cause unremovable deposits on the membrane surfaces affecting the desalination process, reducing capacity and finally requiring the membranes to be replaced.

1) FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
1.1 Description of Process
This fresh water generator uses the principle of the Reverse Osmosis.
If two saline liquids are separated from another by a semi-permeable membrane, which does only allow molecules over a certain size to pass through, then, these liquids will tend to equalize their concentrations. This process is called Osmosis. Should one of these liquids be salt water and the other pure water, water molecules would diffuse through the membrane towards the salt water and dilute this. A certain pressure would occur in the system when this happens this pressure is called the Osmotic Pressure.
For water desalination or dechlorination this process is artificially reversed, Reverse Osmosis. The system is subjected to a pressure above the Osmotic Pressure, causing a molecule movement into the reverse direction: Only the water molecules diffuse from the salt water through the membrane to the pure water side. The ions of the salt water cannot pass through and remain on the salt water side.
Within the ROCHEM PT modules the REVERSE OSMOSIS process takes place whilst the feed water is in motion, flowing over the membrane surfaces. About 30% of the water in the feed water passes through the membrane, the remaining 70% retaining the rejected salts. The feed water is gradually increasing in salt concentration as it flows through the module. The salts filtered out and left behind by the membrane are carried away and discharged, in case of sea water desalination they are returned to the sea as brine (concentrate). The pure water “permeate” produced flows to a fresh water storage facility.
The amount of pure water that can be produced depends on the following factors: 1- the operating pressure,
2- the salt content of the feed water, 3- the feed water temperature.
For example the oceans have a salt content of approximately 3½ %. whereas the Red Sea has a much higher salt content of approximately 4½ %,
To overcome the increase in salinity the operating pressure is increased.
Each standard system has been designed for a certain production rate of pure water, assuming a feed water temperature of 25°C. For each 1°C drop in feed water temperature the permeate production drops by 3%. For example: Designed output at 25°C is 100 l/h.
Then with a feed temperature of say 15°C the permeate output is 100-30% = 70 l/h.
A rise in temperature above 25°C increases the pure water production only slightly. 25°C is the optimum feed temperature.
Note: Some systems can be supplied to produce the required quantity with a low feed water temperature.
1.2 Unit Arrangement
The water desalination system consists mainly of the following components:
Sandfilter safety valve control panel
(master-switch) conductivity display control cabinet flowmeters Sample valves Deacidification Filter removable pump carrier (PK130, PP160, VS160)
sandfilter cartridge filters manual valves gauges
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS
The plant is controlled by a PLC unit Telemecanique “TSX-Micro”. The control program is stored on a microchip called “EEPROM“. When switching on the plant the processor loads the program automatically from the EEPROM into its Random Access Memory. By means of a programming device, connected to the serial interface of the processor unit, changes can be made to the program.
The following valves must be set manually for the different operating functions:
VK121 VK132 VK134 VK133 VK171 normal operation stop rinse circuit cleaning sandfilter backwash - air rinse - sandfilter backwash - water rinse - valves handle showing normal functional flow valve closed
Pressure switch PS150 is activated by the water pressure before the
high pressure pump and switches the plant off in the event of insufficient feed (to protect the pump against cavitation). It is de activated when the pressure drops below a set value of 0.5 bar. High pressure pump will not start if this pressure switch is not activated. When not activated fault will show.
Pressure switch PS170 (if installed) monitors the pressure in the
concentrate line from the PT module. It stops the plant at a pressure of 6 bar, in order to avoid damage to the module. Most probable cause for this to be activated is that a valve on the concentrate discharge is closed. This pressure switch is activated when the pressure goes above the 6 bar setting. When activated fault will show.
Pressure switch PS180 stops the plant when the pressure in the
permeate line rises to 3 bar. This is to save the PT module from damage. This pressure switch is activated when the pressure goes above 3 bar. When activated fault will show.
Centrifugal pump PK130 filter pump, delivers the feed water at a
pressure of up to 4 bar through the cartridge filter and from there to the high pressure pump PP160. This centrifugal pump has its own integral electric motor.
The sand filter retains all sediment particles over 50 µm in size. As the density of these particles increases, the pressure drop across the inlet and outlet increases. To reduce this pressure drop and remove these particles, the sandfilter is backwashed by air and feed water (generally when 2 to 2.5 bar are reached).
Within cartridge filter FC140 sediment particles of 10 µm or more in size are retained within the filter element. These cartridge filter elements have to be replaced when dirty, they cannot be cleaned.
High-pressure pump PP160 is a positive displacement pump. (plunger
pump) this pump delivers feed to the PT modules at a pressure of up to 65 bar. (note: pressure is controlled by VS160). The pump is powered through a belt drive from a three-phase motor. Minimum feed pressure to
The pulsation damper fitted on the high-pressure pump discharge converts the pressure fluctuations, common for a plunger pump, into a steady pressure. It consists of a pressure vessel, internally separated by an diaphragm into two sections. The outermost section is filled with nitrogen at a pressure of 30 bar. The pulsation’s from the 3 plungers of the HP pump are absorbed by the gas pressurized membrane. It is normal to observe pulsation’s in the pointer of PI160 when pointer is rising through 25 to 32 bar, (resistance against gas pressure).
Innerhalb der ST-Module wird das Rohwasser unter dem angelegten Druck durch die Membrankissen gepresst. Das Wasser dringt durch die Membranen und wird als Permeat abgeführt; Salzmoleküle und andere Verunreinigungen des Rohwassers können die Membran größtenteils nicht passieren (Rückhaltung bei NaCl 98,5-99%), bleiben zurück und werden vom nachfolgenden Rohwasser mitgenommen, so dass sich dieses von Modul zu Modul weiter aufkonzentriert. Das Konzentrat wird (bei Seewasserentsalzung) in das Meer zurückgeleitet.
The pressure in the PT module or modules, is automatically controlled and adjusted by motor valve VS160, which in turn is controlled by the PLC. The plant is designed for a maximum operating pressure of 65 bar.
The operating pressure is 65 bar with normal sea water.
This valve should never be fully closed during operation. When in operation this valve reduces the flow area to increase the pressure between the HP pump discharge and the outlet of the modules. If this valve closes a fault will show.
This valve can be manually operated by a hand wheel should the power unit fail.
The concentrate flows from the unit through the manually operated concentrate valve VK171, which allows three positions:
(a) at normal operation, discharge (e.g. sent overboard back to sea), (b) at circuit cleaning, returning to cleaning tank B111,
(c) at closed position.
A conductivity sensor transmits the conductivity of the permeate to the conductivity meter, (measuring the remaining salt content). An increase in conductivity implies a higher salt content. The value displayed in the conductivity meter is in µs/cm. As a rough guide, if the reading shown is divided by 2 the figure obtained would be the approximate value of salts as p.p.m.(mg/l).
The pure water solenoid valve VE1801 is automatically controlled by the conductivity of the permeate. If the maximum pre-set value (1000 µS/cm for sea-water desalination, 50 µS/cm for mains water purification) is exceeded, VE1801 sends the permeate into the cleaning tank (from there to drain). When good permeate is produced, at a quality with a lower conductivity than the maximum pre-set value, then VE1801 sends this water to fresh water storage.
If the plant operates more than 15 to 20 minutes at high conductivity (over the set limit), it automatically shuts down and a fault signal is displayed.
As an option the plant can be equipped with a fresh water storage control. Starting and stopping the unit will then be actuated by 2 level switches fitted in the storage tank. When the low level switch is activated, the plant will start automatically. When the tank is full the high level switch will be activated and the unit stops and will be in a “stand by” mode waiting to be restarted either by remote (level switch) or manually by pressing the start button.

The flow meter FI180 is installed in the permeate line from the PT module(s). Inside the plastic body there is a floating indicator. When its top edge aligns to the appropriate mark on the scale, indicates the rate of pure water produced. The scale is marked in liters per hour on the front of the transparent plastic body.
The floating indicator 1 is magnetic and actuates a eletrical siglal to the PLC. The PLC in turn sends a signal to the motor valve VS160. VS160 controlled the pure water flow.
The conductivity meter displays the conductivity of the permeate, measured by the conductivity sensor. Conductivity provides a measure for the salt content remaining: The higher the conductivity, the higher the salt content.
The pressure gauges PI140 and PI150 (PI140-PI150) indicate the pressure loss across the cartridge filter, PI130-PI140 indicates the pressure loss across the sandfilter. If the pressure loss reaches an approx. value of 2 to 2.5 bar, the sandfilter must be backwashed.
PI160 shows the operating pressure of the unit, shown as the inlet pressure to the PT Modules.
The pressure gauges are filled with a glycerin type liquid, this is to minimize pointer vibration.

2.6 Circuit Cleaning
Organic and inorganic substances within the feed water are deposited on the membrane surfaces (described as “Fouling and Scaling”). This causes an increased salt content in the permeate and a reduction in the fresh water production. By circuit cleaning these sedimentation’s are flushed off and removed.
A circuit cleaning is required, when the fresh water production has dropped by 10 to 15% (equal water temperature assumed). Generally, it should be carried out every 3 to 4 weeks.
CHOICE OF CLEANER:
The ROCHEM cleaning solutions are specially formulated and made for the membranes used in our PT modules. Use of other chemicals can cause damage and loss in performance. The membranes can be damaged by oxidizing agents (e.g. free chlorine, Cl2,
ozone O3). In the sea water these contents are normally neutralized by other existing organic
substances. Oxidizing agents are sometimes used in sea water pipe systems, to avoid fouling and kill bacterium’s.
Cleaner Application
Type AA For organic sedimentation and fouling Type C To remove iron fouling.
For normal cleaning cleaner “AA” would be used.
It is recommended that “C” is used every 4 months to remove iron deposits. These would come from the sea water and also from pipe lines, suction chest and vessels hull.
If the type of deposits / fouling is not known, all cleaners C and AA should be used consecutively. Run the unit for a minimum of 3 hours between cleanings to check results.
Maximum concentration of cleaner: 5 liters of cleaner per 100 liters of water (which corresponds to 5 liters of cleaner per cleaning cycle for this unit).
CAUTION:
F
NEVER MIX DIFFERENT CLEANERS!If done, this will only neutralize the cleaning solution and the cleaning results will be minimal. This can also damage the membrane surfaces.
F
Never pass any external water (e.g. distilled, chlorinated or de-ionized water) into the RO unit. This would cause damage to the membranes by osmosis.F
The feed water temperature should not exceed 30°C.F
When using 2 cleaners, to be fully effective they must be used in the followingsequence:
1st Cleaner “C” (acidic cleaner). 2nd Cleaner “AA” (alkaline cleaner).
Acidic cleaner should always be used before the alkaline cleaner. This removes the deposits nearest the membrane surface making it easier for the alkaline cleaner to remove the organic deposits.
F
Never disassemble the membrane modules for cleaning the membrane cushionsby hand or other soft equipment which will in any way affect the membrane layer
surface and the membrane material will lose its salt rejection ability.
STARTING THE CLEANING PROCESS
The cleaning can only be initiated from normal operating mode.
