Zhejiang Hengyang Thermal Power Company Case Study

Challenge Overview: The Zhejiang Hengyang Thermal Power Company, located in China’s Zhejiang province, needed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of its boiler feed water treatment system. The plant experienced significant problems with its multimedia filtration (MMF) and UF systems during high turbidity events in the river water used as a source.

Nanostone Solution: We replaced both the MMF and polymeric UF systems with its CUF|Shield™ (CM-151) ceramic UF membranes. This retrofit streamlined operations, reduced the need for polymer chemicals, and increased recovery rates for the RO pre-treatment solution.

Benefits Achieved: Consistent delivery of high-quality water to the RO system with SDI values < 2 and turbidity readings < 0.1 NTU.
- Significant reduction in operating costs due to lower chemical usage and increased membrane lifespan.
- Improved system reliability and reduced maintenance frequency.

Common Questions

About Industrial Water Treatment

What industrial sectors can benefit from Nanostone’s water treatment solutions?

Our ceramic membrane systems have proven particularly effective and efficient in industrial applications such as power generation, mining, and manufacturing.

How does Nanostone improve industrial water treatment?

Our systems provide efficient filtration that reduces fouling and extends overall system lifespan, resulting in lower operational costs over time. Unlike conventional pre-treatment technologies, Nanostone’s compact design requires a smaller footprint, making it ideal for installations with limited space.

How does the performance of ceramic membranes compare to traditional filtration methods in industrial settings?

In industrial settings, ceramic membranes significantly outperform traditional filtration methods by enabling Simplified Treatment Schemes. These membranes handle demanding conditions with high durability, improved filtration efficiency, and enhanced resistance to fouling. Unlike conventional setups, ceramic membranes can streamline processes by reducing or even eliminating the need for multiple pre-treatment stages.
