A look at Water treatment equipment in Kenya

Water treatment equipment in Kenya are designed specifically to treat raw water and get rid of the undesired particles which are always in the water.

After removing the undesired sediments such as color, algae and other harmful organisms the water will be safe for drinking and other domestic use.

There are various types of water treatment equipment in Kenya used in the process of making sure that water consumed by people is clean and good for human and animal use.

Types of water treatment equipment in Kenya

Ultra filtration plant

Ultra filtration plant is a water treatment system which provides tangential flow pressure driven filtration process that helps in efficiently separating particles on the basis of their molecular sizes.
The ultra filtration system performs as an advanced industrial system and finds application as per pre-treatment step to the next especially in reverse osmosis process.

Features

The ultra filtration plant is a system which is able to withstand a lot of pressure and has built in safety features which are used to ensure that the high pressure pump membranes are protected.

The systems are normally tested and fully assembled before they are dispatched to the market. This is to ensure that the machines are fully functional and that they do not have any defects.

Starting up the system is quite easy and that you do not need an expert to do that. It’s therefore an efficient and economic way of removing dissolved solids. It’s also a good option because it has an online device which is used to monitor the quality of water treated giving the users an assurance that water was indeed treated.

The system also comes in a range of models and capacities to suit the needs of different people or institutions. It’s also easy to find the spare parts of the Ultra filtration plant and the service is easily available as well.

 Pressure sand filter

Pressure sand filter is a type of water treatment equipment used for the removal of suspended solids and un dissolved impurities such as dust particles and heavy metals. The sand filter is highly recommended for the systems with high sediment, sand, turbidity and silt.

It’s used to purify drinking water, swimming pool water and many more.

Features

The pressure sand filter was made using non corrosive materials and thus one can be assured that the water will be safe for human consumption.

The sand filter which is also cost effective does not limit its use because it’s suitable for both residential, large commercial and industrial applications. It therefore does not limit its use.

The sand filter can be either operated by hand or automatically. They also come in different sizes so one gets to choose the size that best suits his or her needs.

An activated carbon filter

This is a type of water treatment equipment used in the removal of free chlorine, chloramines, chlorine dioxide, phenol's, organic solvents and pesticides.

The use of carbon filters has been growing day by day and many industries and breweries have adopted the method. The system has also proved to be most effective in water works and waste water treatment.

The activated carbon filter plays a very crucial part in the process of removing pesticides in drinking water.

The above mentioned water treatment plants are just but a few of the many water treatment equipment in Kenya which have been playing a major role in ensuring that people get clean and safe water.
