Seawater contains approximately "tens of grams per liter" of salt. This requires careful design and material selection in pressurized treatment steps.
Waves, currents and post-storm turbidity and sand increase; if the intake structure is not planned according to these conditions, the system is strained.
Mussels, marine life and biofilm; attachment occurs on intake lines and equipment surfaces.
During periods such as red tide, water color and odor change; pretreatment strategy must be flexible accordingly.
Site selection and intake velocity: Intake structures designed with slow intake velocities and multi-stage screens that protect fish and plankton
Intake type: Pipe intake from open sea from shore, coastal wells (using coastal sand as a natural filter) or evaluation of both together
Durable materials: Duplex stainless steels suitable for marine environment, HDPE pipes
Limiting biological growth: Protection in intake pipes and intake structures with intermittent and controlled disinfection
Multi-stage screening: Coarse-fine screens; wide-surface screens are used against seaweed and jellyfish drift in coastal conditions
Chemical adjustment and floc formation: Dose and mixing are automatically adjusted when turbidity changes
Sedimentation or flotation: Sedimentation in heavy turbidity; fast and reliable separation with flotation during algal periods
Multi-layer filters and cartridge filters: Reduces fine particles, extends RO membrane life
Fine-pore pre-filtration (option): Provides additional filtration in difficult seasons, makes water quality very stable
Pressurized separation: Salt and minerals are separated by passing water through a very fine membrane. Pressure recovery equipment is used to reduce energy consumption
Water yield: With proper design, approximately 40–45 liters of fresh water are obtained from every 100 liters of seawater
Protective operation: Automatic rinse-wash, soft start-stop, regular maintenance cycles
Scale and salt scaling management: Scale-preventing recipes and dose control according to composition in raw water
Balancing and conditioning: Desalinated water becomes very soft; taste and balance are achieved with appropriate mineral recovery
Corrosion control: Alkalinity-hardness balance is established to protect pipes-fittings in network and storage
Health safety: Final disinfection by light or chemical methods; precise dosing for desired persistence in network
Environmental compliance: Concentrated brine at the outlet is safely discharged to sea with diffuser heads that accelerate mixing
Site-specific solution: Coastal currents, depth and environmental impacts are evaluated together; dilution is done with other lines if necessary
Algal season protocol: Taste-odor and color control with flotation-filtration combination and activated carbon support.
Filter clogging tendency tracking: Not just a number, but the speed of the trend is also monitored; cleaning cycles are planned accordingly.
Chemical balance: Fine adjustment of scale-preventing chemicals according to season and water temperature.
Quiet and safe operation: Acoustic and vibration criteria in fan-pump selection; environmentally sensitive operation during night operations.
Redundancy: Redundant architecture for "system not stopping during maintenance" in pumps and critical equipment.
Remote monitoring: Turbidity, conductivity, pressure, temperature and flow are continuously monitored; early warning before deviations occur.
High-capacity, multi-barrier architecture for cities and industry.
Packaged systems quickly commissioned for islands, construction sites, tourism facilities and emergencies.
Capacity is increased by adding new modules as needed.
