BWC1000 Containerized Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis System

The Desal BWC1000 Containerized Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis System is a high-efficiency container-integrated desalination solution developed by FENIGAL. It integrates core components such as pretreatment, reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, and high-pressure pumps into a 40-foot standard container. Most installation and commissioning work is completed before delivery, enabling quick on-site deployment with only simple water, electricity, and pipeline connections.
Tailored for brackish water with a salinity of 1,000–5,000 mg/L, the system has a rated fresh water production capacity of 42 m³/h. Its produced water meets the standards of the WHO Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality (4th Edition, 2012), making it ideal for scenarios like urban water supply supplementation, large-scale mining operations, power plant auxiliary water, and hotel/resort centralized water supply—effectively solving clean water shortages in brackish water-affected areas.

Water Quality Indicator | Unit | Limit | Abnormal Handling Suggestions |
---|
Salinity (TDS) | mg/L | 1,000–5,000 | Contact us for customized pretreatment if salinity is out of range |
Temperature | ℃ | 5–35 | Avoid low temperature (reduces water production) or high temperature (accelerates membrane aging) |
Turbidity | NTU | <40 | Add extra pretreatment (e.g., coagulation) if turbidity exceeds limit |
Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) | mg/L | <10 | Prevent organic fouling of RO membranes |
Ferrous Iron (Fe²⁺) | mg/L | <0.1 | Avoid iron deposition and membrane scaling |
Manganese (Mn²⁺) | mg/L | <0.1 | Prevent manganese oxidation and membrane flux reduction |
Oil and Grease | mg/L | 0 | Strictly control oil content to avoid permanent membrane damage |
Water Quality Indicator | Unit | Limit | Compliance Basis |
---|
Salinity (TDS) | mg/L | <500 | Meets WHO Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality (4th Edition, 2012) |
pH Value | - | 6–8 | Ensures drinking comfort and pipeline corrosion resistance |
Turbidity | NTU | <0.2 | Clear water with no visible suspended solids |
Intake Pump → Feed Tank → Feed Pump → (Dosing: Sodium Hypochlorite for disinfection) → Sand Filter (omittable if feed water turbidity <0.3 NTU) → (Dosing: Sodium Bisulfite + Antiscalant for residual chlorine removal & scale prevention) → Security Filter → High-Pressure Pump → RO Unit (fresh water permeates membrane; concentrated brine discharged after pressure relief) → Product Tank

Rapid Deployment: Over 80% of installation is completed before delivery; on-site installation time is only 30% of traditional systems (per document comparison data), significantly shortening project cycles.
Strong Corrosion Resistance: Uses Sch10 SS316 high-pressure pipes/fittings and heavy-duty anti-corrosion paint; wet components are made of duplex steel, SS904L, or UPVC to resist brackish water erosion.
Efficient Filtration Protection: Three-stage filtration (sand filter → security filter → main filter) effectively removes impurities, protecting high-pressure pumps and RO membranes and reducing maintenance costs.
Low Energy Consumption: Equipped with high-efficiency HPP, IE3 motors, and low-energy RO membranes, achieving an energy consumption of only 1.06 kWh/m³—lower than industry average levels.
Easy Maintenance: Adopts standard parts; in case of malfunctions, the system can be quickly restored (per document "Fast restoring" feature), minimizing downtime.
Urban & Small-City Water Supply: Supplements water sources in areas with brackish groundwater.
Mining Operations: Provides drinking water for mining teams and water for mining processes.
Power Plants: Supplies low-salinity water for boiler feed water or cooling towers.
Hotels & Resorts: Meets large-scale concentrated water demand for guests and operations.
Agricultural Exploitations: Provides qualified irrigation water in arid, brackish water-rich regions.
