We implement state-of-the-art solutions that ensure water quality to address the electrolysis process with the maximum guarantee in terms of efficiency and sustainability.
In the petrochemical sector, the transition to cleaner energy sources has become a strategic imperative. In this process, SITRA has become a trusted partner for the key players in this industry.
It consists of a process in which contaminant ions present in water (such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, chlorine, and other metals) are replaced by hydrogen ions (H⁺) and hydroxide ions (OH⁻). Its application allows for high efficiency in the removal of dissolved ions, and its operating costs are relatively low.
This filtration process uses a semipermeable membrane to remove most of the impurities dissolved in the water. Pressure is applied to force the water through the membrane, leaving the impurities behind. Its application is often a first step, as it is usually combined with other technologies to optimize salinity levels.
It combines reverse osmosis and ion exchange deionization, with the advantage of using an electric field to move ions toward the electrodes and remove impurities from the water. This process is continuous and requires no chemicals, making it a particularly clean and efficient alternative.
Activated carbon is a porous material used in water treatment to remove organic compounds such as chlorine. It is a very effective treatment for reducing levels of dissolved organic matter, which can affect water quality. Furthermore, it is notable for its low installation and operating costs.
This filtration technology uses membranes with smaller pores than microfiltration, allowing it to remove finer particles such as viruses, bacteria, and suspended particles from the water. While it does not remove dissolved ions or organic compounds, it is effective at removing physical and biological contaminants. Therefore, it is often used in pretreatment processes prior to reverse osmosis or deionization.
This process uses a semipermeable membrane to separate water from contaminants based on pressure and temperature differences. The technique relies on the evaporation and condensation of water, taking advantage of the temperature difference between two compartments separated by a membrane. It is especially useful when high-quality water is required without the need for high temperatures, and it is much more energy-efficient than conventional distillation.
