Remineralization Filters
Remineralization filtersĀ useĀ Limestone contactors to neutralise the pH and to add calcium and bicarbonates to acidic waters such as groundwater, rain water or Reverse Osmosis permeate.

If water does not contain any agressive CO2, CO2 gas must be injected prior to filter inlet. Please send us your water analysis for a complete design.

Vessel material: Epoxy-coated steel or polyester composite or Stainless steel
Pressure: 4-9 bar
Bed dept: min 1 meter
Control: Automatic or manual backwash (timer or pressure diferential)

Why should desalinated water be remineralized?

Low mineralized water have few adverse effects:

- High corrosion potential
- Dietary deficiency causing risks of ischaemic heart and cerebrovascular disease (WHO, 2005a; WHO, 2006; Cotruvo, 2006)

The WHO recommends 10 mg/L of Magnesium and 30 mg/L of Calcium for drinking water.
