¿What is a metering pump?

A dosing pump is characterized as one of the most important elements for the operation of the industry.

Its main function is to distribute the different liquids that are used to make a product.

The truth is that what characterizes dosing pumps is that they have millimeter precision, especially when it is necessary to measure the quantities of certain liquids in very large volumes and in a certain time.

Metering pumps are very important for water treatment.

¿What does the desalination of sea water consist of?

¿What is water desalination?

Desalination consists of a process of separating salts from brackish or sea water to convert them into water suitable for human, industrial or agricultural consumption.

¿What is the treatment that this type of water receives?

Water desalination is carried out through different technological processes in desalination plants.

These plants are water treatment facilities that make it possible to take advantage of seawater or brackish water, adapting them to the characteristics required for later use.

¿What is the advantage of desalination of water?

One of the most considered and of great importance is being able to have water available in places where there is greater scarcity.

LG BW R membranes offer a combination of high rejection and reliability suitable for high salinity brackish water and wastewater reuse applications.

Efficent alternative to desinfect water.

The best efficient alternative for water disinfection is through ultraviolet (UV) light.

UV light prevents microorganisms from reproducing by damaging their nucleic acid.

¿How does UV light disinfect water?

This process is based on the principles of sunlight where by means of strong solar rays the water is permanently purified in a natural way, eliminating the contaminants present in the water.

Its disinfection is not a chemical process and does not produce any residue.

SANITRON® Ultraviolet Purifiers use germicidal ultraviolet lamps that produce lethal short-wave radiation for bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms present in water.

If you need to purify your water, we recommend that you learn about SANITRON water purifying systems.

Advantages of using these systems:

  • Cash
  • Quick
  • Insurance
  • Easy
  • Automatic
  • Chemical free
  • Versatile

Activated carbon and its function to improve water quality.

¿What is activated carbon?

It is a black, odorless, tasteless powder obtained from coconut shell and wood pulp, being a versatile material that can control and eliminate polluting compounds.

¿What does activated carbon remove from water?

Eliminates impurities in the water such as pesticides, industrial residues, and other chemical products. It also removes pollutants that generate bad odors and flavors, making the water taste better and better quality.

Thanks to the amount of elements that activated carbon removes, it is used in all fields of water treatment.

It's used in treatment plants and in domestic purifiers.

Activated carbon  is one of the most effective ways to improve water quality.

Jacobi Carbons provides solutions to municipalities that need to treat their water so that it is safe and potable.

Jacobi provides AquaSorb ™ series products.

AquaSorb ® 1200 granular activated carbon is manufactured specifically for the treatment of water for human consumption, both in municipal and industrial applications.

Features:

  • Standard activity
  • Versatile adsorbent
  • High mechanical resistance

¿Are you afraid to drinnk tap water?

We know that drinking water is important for you and your family, and above all to avoid illnesses through it.

Most have already become aware of the importance and benefits of drinking water.

But drinking water directly from the tap can, in some cases, be a source of disease.

It is likely that the water you drink is drinkable, but this does not mean that it is completely clean of substances or pollutants such as viruses and bacteria.

It is precisely from these agents that water purifying filters liberate us.

¿What is a water purifying filter?

A water filter is a system that reduces the bacterial contamination of the water that comes through the tap.

When passing through the filter, it traps the particles that the water brings and can be toxic or harmful to health, some of these elements are sand, mud, rust, dust, iron, high amounts of chlorine and bacteria, among others.

To give you the confidence and security that you and your family need, the best option is to install a purifying filter to ensure that the water you drink is completely safe.

The water filters for the home are compact, easy to install know them:

Carbon block

  • Removes odor, color, taste and chlorine from water.

Granulated activated carbon

  • Removes odor, color, taste and chlorine from water.

Polypropylene settler

  • Cleaner sediment-free water.

¿How effective is ozone to disinfect?

¿What is ozone?

It is a powerful oxidant that gives them disinfectant properties against microorganisms as long as they are used in the necessary doses for the necessary time.

¿Is it totally safe to use it?

Claro is completely safe and its use is regulated by its corresponding standard, being its usual application in the purification of water.

Its main advantages are that it does not leave chemical residues and does not impart particular aromas or odors to the final product, as occurs with other disinfectants.

¿How do you disinfect?

Because, by sharing electrons between three atoms, the resulting molecule tends to capture electrons from any compound that comes close to it, which makes it a strong oxidant. Thus, by capturing electrons from other molecules, it oxidizes them until they are destroyed, as long as the ozone concentration and the contact time are sufficient.

¿How effective is it as a disinfectant?

Ozone is highly effective in disinfection against viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoa, as well as properties that allow the elimination of bad odors and chemical contamination. This is due to its great oxidizing power.

Negative effects of water hardness.

¿What is hard water?

It is known as hard water that contains a high level of dissolved minerals calcium and magnesium. And with it the problems it carries.

¿Do you know what consequences it could cause?

It is important to know that hard water causes various problems.

Having hard water can have a major influence on the performance and maintenance of cleaning appliances, as well as the taste of the water.

The negative effects of hard water exist:

  • Hard water can cause significant pressure losses in the water due to calcium scale by reducing the diameter of the pipe.
  • Hot water appliances (boiler, electric water heater, heater) and household appliances (washing machine, dishwasher) are damaged, and can cause breakdowns if we have water with a high calcium content.
  • Water with excess calcium is not as effective when used with cleaning and hygiene products.
  • It wreaks havoc on people's skin. May cause dryness and irritability. Dries out hair and skin. It also clogs the pores of the skin. However, the worst is when eczema or dermatitis occurs.
  • Water appliances that have hard water can consume up to 60% more heat energy, and their efficiency can be reduced by 12%, even generating high costs. If you want to save energy, you will have to solve the problems of hard water.

¿Are you looking for a solution?

Despite this, there is a great solution for this type of operation aimed at eliminating the hardness of the water, called a softener.

The softener offers a complete solution to prevent scale formation caused by these minerals produced by high-grade calcium and magnesium carbonates that are dissolved in water.

The process of softening the water consists of removing some minerals that are found in small proportions in the water that can affect certain activities and be harmful if consumed in high levels.
