The GUNT Water Treatment Plant 1 demonstrates the three key unit operations in water treatment: depth filtration, adsorption, and ion exchange. It provides hands-on experience in treating raw water through multiple stages to produce clean, treated water.
Product Features
- Raw water is pumped into a gravel filter and then a sand filter to remove suspended solids
- Filtered water undergoes adsorption on aluminium oxide and activated carbon to remove dissolved substances
- Ion exchange stage includes water softening via cation exchange and desalination via mixed bed ion exchanger
- Separate supply unit with pumps and tanks for raw and treated water
- Raw water tank aeration ensures thorough mixing and precipitation of dissolved substances such as iron
- Backwash connection for sand filters included for cleaning and maintenance
- Measurement of flow rate, temperature, conductivity, differential pressure, and system pressure at relevant points
- Sample collection possible at all key stages for water quality analysis
- PLC control via touch screen for easy operation
- Integrated router enables remote operation and monitoring via end devices with screen mirroring
- Data storage on PLC with access via WLAN/LAN; data transmission to PC supported for analysis with GUNT software
Benefits
- Comprehensive water treatment process demonstration with real-time monitoring
- Flexible operation and remote control enhance learning and experimentation
- Advanced data handling for detailed process analysis and reporting
