Working Principle

The CPA3-LD-8040 operates based on the reverse osmosis principle:
  1. Pre-Filtration:
    • Feed water passes through a 5-μm security filters to remove particulates.
  2. Reverse Osmosis:
    • High-pressure pumps force water through the semipermeable polyamide membrane, which rejects dissolved solids (e.g., salts, organics) and allows pure water to pass.
  3. Separation:
    • Concentrated contaminants  are discharged, while purified water  is collected for downstream use.

Key Features & Advantages

  1. High Salt Rejection:
    • 99.8% NaCl rejection ensures ultra-pure water for critical applications.
  2. Low Energy Consumption:
    • Operates at 200 psi (1.379 MPa), reducing energy costs by up to 30% compared to traditional membranes.
  3. Anti-pollution design:
    • Hydrophilic surface and optimized flow channels minimize fouling, extending service life and reducing cleaning frequency.
  4. Wide Compatibility:
    • Fits standard 8” pressure vessels and integrates seamlessly with existing RO systems.
  5. Chemical Resistance:
    • Resists chlorine (up to 1,000 ppm·hrs), acids, and alkalis, ensuring durability in harsh environments.

Application in Pharmaceutical Water Treatment

The CPA3-LD-8040 is critical for pharmaceutical applications:
  1. Purified Water (PW) and Water for Injection (WFI):
    • Removes endotoxins, bacteria, and viruses to meet USP, EP, and JP standards.
  2. Process Water:
    • Ensures high-quality water for formulation, cleaning, and equipment rinsing.
  3. Wastewater Recycling:
    • Recovers solvents and reduces wastewater discharge, supporting sustainability goals.

Other Industrial Applications

  1. Food & Beverage Industry:
    • Clarifies juices, wines, and dairy products; removes pathogens for shelf-life extension.
  2. Power Generation:
    • Treats boiler feedwater to prevent scaling and corrosion.
  3. Electronics Manufacturing:
    • Produces ultra-pure water for semiconductor fabrication.
  4. Oil & Gas:
    • Desalinates produced water for reuse in hydraulic fracturing.
