Process Water Filtration Solutions for Marine Applications

Maintaining the purity of coolant and process water is crucial to prevent equipment damage. Separating solids and emulsions in process water can be challenging for ship operators. Discover solutions here.

It is crucial to maintain the purity of coolant and process water. Contaminants can damage equipment through fouling and erosion. However, separating higher solids and medium to coarse emulsions in process water can be difficult depending on the physical properties of the contaminants. The inability to efficiently separate solids and medium to coarse emulsions in process water can be very costly to ship operators.

 

We provide solutions for the following applications:

 

Pall provide membrane filtration systems for surface water sources with microorganisms, high particle load, and high turbidity, delivering potable quality water for process and coolant water. For cylindrical cartridge filter housings, Pall's Profile™ II filters deliver pharmaceutical-grade purity. They can remove trace oils, and they are resistant to chemicals as well. When absolute purity is required, we offer Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems that provide a pure water stream without contamination or salts.

 

As per IMO regulation, Bilge Water may not exceed an oil content of 15 ppm before discharge. The inability to efficiently separate liquid/liquid emulsions can be costly. We offer ceramic membrane for Bilge Water Treatment Systems to treat spent oil emulsions. These elements resist extremes in pH caused by caustic degreasing and high temperatures. Pall's Phasesep® Coalescer offers superior liquid and particulate removal efficiency, reducing incidents of off-spec products at low operating costs. Both solutions are perfect if low operational costs and maintenance requirements are essential for the operator.

 

Pall Water Injection Gas Turbine Engine Filters refine water impurities to protect integral components from corrosion, fouling, and erosion while enabling gas turbines to run with low NOx emission rates. Nitrogen oxide (NOx) reduction systems rely on clean water for ideal removal of NOx while not corroding the blades and other materials. To achieve optimal reduction of NOx in modern gas turbine engines that use water injection, it is essential to maintain high standards of water purity. Pall Water Injection Filtration systems eliminate minerals, organic matter, and other particles to exceed purity requirements. Our reliable and long-lasting filtering and treatment products ensure that the water used is of the required purity level. This, in turn, leads to cleaner turbine combustion, resulting in more efficient power generation with fewer NOx emissions.
