Pressure Sensors for Sea Water Desalination Project

Date: 2022-Jan-29

The water becomes wastewater after it exposed to different contaminants during the industrial manufacturing process and domestic water uses. And the wastewater must undergo rigorous treatment before it can be released into natural reservoirs or recycled for other uses. While for those areas lacking freshwater resources, seawater desalination also provides a guarantee for daily water use. Either way aims to clean, combine, and transform the water into the products we rely on in our daily lives.

The water treatment systems use technology like Reverse Osmosis Systems, Ultrafiltration systems, and Tramp Oil Separators are used to both neutralize and remove impurities from the water. To maintain the integrity and ensure the safe operation of these systems, the reliable pressure transmitter, level transmitter, Ultrasonic level sensor, and flow meter manufactured by Micro Sensor help to achieve the goal.

So how should we desalinate seawater?
Generally, the reverse osmosis membrane method is used for seawater desalination. The seawater is pressurized by a high-pressure pump, so that the water molecules in the seawater pass through the reverse osmosis membrane to realize the separation of water and salt.

When performing this operation, various data must be closely monitored to ensure that the seawater can be desalinated smoothly. The sophisticated equipment can ensure that the error during operation is minimized. According to above operation steps, in the entire desalination operation, the pressure is directly related to the success of the desalination operation. Therefore, various instruments are needed to monitor the pressure in the entire desalination process. Micro Sensor provides professional monitoring instrument for several important pressure monitoring points in the process.
The internal water level monitoring of the inlet water storage tank and the freshwater storage tank is performed separately through the MPM489W liquid level transmitter. The professional performance of MPM489W can meet the water pressure monitoring requirements under different conditions and can reflect the water amount inside of the tank to help make adjustment in time.



Besides, we have MFE600E electromagnetic flowmeter which can always monitor the water flow inside the pipeline without being affected by the temperature, pressure, conductivity and other factors of the liquid, and display parameters such as cumulative flow, instantaneous flow, flow rate, and flow percentage, etc. in matrix LCD display. It can effectively monitor the internal data of the pipeline and responds to emergencies in time.

In the high-pressure pump part, customers can use the MPM483 pressure transmitter to connect with the switchgear or directly use the MPM583 pressure switch for water flow measurement and control. By monitoring whether the water flow pressure reaches a rated pressure value to control the water flow, it ensures the accuracy of the high-pressure pump during compression.

Similarly, in addition to the pressure monitoring equipment, temperature transmitters will be used due to the different working environment temperatures throughout the year and they are generally installed in the pipeline for temperature monitoring. Micro Sensor MTM4831 temperature transmitter is flexible in installation and has various forms. It can perform accurate monitoring under various working conditions to ensure the temperature monitoring of the operating process.
