A customer commissioned Alfiltra to install a comprehensive water treatment system for their well. The well's water analysis revealed several challenges, including low pH, elevated nitrate levels and elevated manganese concentrations. A combination of treatment systems was installed to bring the water quality to a safe and usable level.

Challenge:

  • Low pH: 5.21 (corrosive)
  • High nitrate content: 78.6 mg/l (above the drinking water limit)
  • Elevated manganese: 95.9 µg/l
  • Total hardness: 7.1 °dH (soft)

Installed systems:

  • Disinfection system: For the safe removal of microbiological contamination.
  • Nitrate filter system: Reduces the nitrate content to a safe level.
  • Iron filter system: Removes iron and manganese to improve water quality.
  • Deacidification system: Raises the pH of the water to prevent corrosion and stabilize water quality.
  • Accessories: Additional components for smooth integration and optimal functioning of the processing systems.

Result: After installing the systems, the well water now meets the requirements for drinking water and is free from harmful contaminants. Alfiltra's comprehensive solution ensures that the water is safe to use and suitable for both household and other applications.
