Puregen
Process Water to Drinking Water!
Achieve huge savings in your fresh water consumption by treating your process water. Produce fresh drinking water at point of use. No more spillages and out of control leakages from circulating loops, eliminating pumping costs and maintenance on extensive pipelines. This is an excellent unit for emergency room use and produces high quality water for battery refilling.
PureGen is a complete compact system (wall mounted or mobile) and is used to produce drinking water from process or brackish water at the point of use.
Purification Process
Process water is fed through the system by means of a 3 stage physical separation of unwanted chemicals and contaminants in the water. Firstly, the particulates up to 5 microns are removed and trapped in a graded pore structure disposable element. The water then pass through an activated carbon element which removes the residual chlorine, color, odor and taste from the water. Finally the water is forced through a reverse osmosis membrane which rejects 99.5% of unwanted dissolved ions and elements in the water. This will produce bacteria and virus free water from most process waters
Specifications
The PureGen unit will typically produce the following water quality as an end product based on the feed quality. Below is a typical analysis and results obtained.

Advantages
- Small, compact design
- Easy access to element replacements
- Easy cleaning of membrane
- Wall mountable or mobile unit for underground
- Stainless steel, 304L
- No breakthrough, short circuiting or premature blocking and failure
The SDI is determined to establish the clogging potential of the membrane as the initial test work on site.
Particle size analysis: a physical determination is carried out over a period of time, to determine the approximate range of the particles in the water supply and this in turn determines the pore size required by the system. Nanotechs unique PSA (particle size analyser) is the only system on the market able to do this an achievement not duplicated elsewhere in the industry.
