The Desal BWC1500 Containerized Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis System is a large-capacity, integrated desalination solution developed by FENIGAL for brackish water treatment. It adopts a dual-container design (two 40-foot standard containers) to house core components—including pretreatment units, high-efficiency reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, high-pressure pumps, and control systems. Most installation and commissioning work is completed before delivery, allowing on-site deployment within a short period via simple connections of water, electricity, and pipelines.
Tailored for brackish water with a salinity of 1,000–5,000 mg/L, the system has a rated fresh water production capacity of 65 m³/h. Its produced water meets the standards of the WHO Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality (4th Edition, 2012), making it suitable for large-scale scenarios such as urban water supply supplementation, industrial water demand (e.g., power plants), and centralized water supply for mining areas or large resorts—effectively addressing clean water shortages in brackish water-affected regions.

3. Feed Water & Product Water Quality Standards
3.1 Feed Water Quality Requirements (Ensuring System Stability)
| Water Quality Indicator | Unit | Limit | Abnormal Handling Suggestions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salinity (TDS) | mg/L | 1,000–5,000 | Contact FENIGAL for customized pretreatment solutions if salinity is out of range |
| Temperature | ℃ | 5–35 | Avoid low temperature (which reduces water production) or high temperature (which accelerates membrane aging) |
| Turbidity | NTU | <40 | Add extra pretreatment (e.g., coagulation and sedimentation) if turbidity exceeds the limit |
| Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) | mg/L | <10 | Prevent organic matter from fouling RO membranes and affecting desalination rate |
| Ferrous Iron (Fe²⁺) | mg/L | <0.1 | Avoid iron ion deposition on the membrane surface to form scale |
| Manganese (Mn²⁺) | mg/L | <0.1 | Prevent manganese oxidation and adhesion to the membrane, which reduces flux |
| Oil and Grease | mg/L | 0 | Strictly control oil content to avoid permanent damage to membrane elements |
3.2 Product Water Quality Standards (Meeting Drinking Water Needs)
| Water Quality Indicator | Unit | Limit | Compliance Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salinity (TDS) | mg/L | <500 | Meets the WHO Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality (4th Edition, 2012) |
| pH Value | - | 6–8 | Ensures human drinking comfort and prevents pipeline corrosion |
| Turbidity | NTU | <0.2 | Water is clear and free of visible suspended solids |
4. System Desalination Process & Core Advantages
4.1 Desalination Process (Corresponding to Document Diagram)
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 and scale prevention) → Security Filter → High-Pressure Pump → RO Unit (fresh water permeates the membrane; concentrated brine is discharged after pressure relief) → Product Tank
