(Hi) Cross flow HEMF from IPS provides clean process water and reduces downtime!.

According to Industrial Purification Systems, process water users can achieve effective water filtration by installing Cross flow HEMF and at the same time save on operating costs by reducing downtime.

The technology filters water down to levels below 1.0 micron, reliably producing a supply of clean water not only free of solids contamination such as sand, grit and iron but also with reduced bacteria, phages and spores such as cryptosporidium.

By reducing the total biological and organic loading from water, chemical dosing is more effective as there is less of a challenge.

 This in turn often results in significant chemical use reduction, which is better for the water user, better for the environment and reduces operational costs.

The company said that industries that have installed this technology have reported a return on investment in less than six months, with some achieving payback in three.

Key benefits;

• Filtration of process water down to 0.45 micron with efficiencies up to 99 per cent.
• Filtration of up to five times more water than a conventional filter achieving only 20-micron filtration.
• Longer ‘on line’ filtration time.
• Acceptance of solid challenges in excess of 200ppm.
• Short backwash times.
• More effective chemical treatment with fewer chemicals.
• Maintaining heat-transfer efficiencies for life of a system.
• Cleaning up older, already contaminated systems and improving performance.
• Reducing backwash loss by up to 95 per cent.
• Reducing costs by reducing loss of chiller and or heater kW input during backwash.
• Inlet pressure of only 1.0barg to operate.
• Minimum energy losses for pumping and processing through high flow, low pressure.

Industries and applications that benefit;

• Plastic moulding shops.
• Oil and gas exploration.
• Power generation.
• Paper manufacturing.
• Automotive manufacture.
• District heating/cooling.
• Pollution control.
• Data centres, banks, hotels, universities.
• UPVC extruders for pipes and windows.
• Potable water production.
• High-performance heating cooling loops.
• Brick, marble stone cutting.
• Brewing and distilling.
• Manufacturing.
• Nuclear power and processing.

Case study: Sheffield Homes uses Cross flow HEMF from IPS for efficient water filtration:

- 'Efficient water filtration is a hot topic for Sheffield homes’

Sheffield Homes manages the continual improvement of council homes across Sheffield. 

The company has a network of boilers and district heating pipework running throughout the city, which supplies heating and hot water to council properties. 

It is crucial that the water flowing through the pipework is kept as clean as possible to maintain flow rates and in so doing achieve maximum energy efficiency. 

Some sections of the pipe network are more than 35 years old. Over time, the pipes have collected debris and particles in the water, which have caused restrictions in the flow rates to some properties and led to problems maintaining an efficient district heating system.

Expensive pump and boiler parts and replacements are often required due to these issues. 

It was therefore felt there was a strong business case to introduce a filtration system to help clean and prolong the life of the heating systems as well as reducing maintenance costs.

Sheffield Homes chose the Cross flow HEMF advanced media filter from Industrial Purification Systems.
