Stage 1: Five
micron Sediment pre-filter that reduces sediment, sand, silt, and rust particles
that may be in your water supply.
Stage 2: A
heavy duty Five Micron lead and chemical reducing carbon block filter (LVOC).
This specially formulated block is capable of reducing lead as well as harmful
Volatile Organic Chemicals. These
water contaminants
comes from a variety of sources including localized use of herbicides and
pesticides, gasoline or oil spill.
Stage 3: Improved
FILMTEC™ seawater reverse osmosis elements offer the highest productivity while
maintaining excellent salt rejection. FILMTEC
SW membrane elements have the highest flow rates available to meet the water
demands of both sea-based and land-based desalinators. FILMTEC SW elements
operate at lower pressure to reduce cost, and operating expenses.
Stage 4: Extruded
Activated Carbon Post-Filter consist of virgin activated carbon powder, a
thermoplastic binder, and specialty adsorbents such as zeolites oxidizing
filtration media. The filters are manufactured as continuous lengths of rod,
tube, slab, flexible flat sheet, or as other complex shapes using a proprietary
solid-state extrusion process. The resulting products are highly porous and
extremely uniform, providing high performance adsorption and particulate
reduction at low flow resistance when fabricated into finished filter
elements.Extruded activated carbon filters meet exacting performance
requirements and/or claims, and specific models are registered as meeting the
requirements of NSF/ANSI for VOCs and THMs reduction, particulate, cyst,
turbidity, lead reduction, chlorine taste and odor reduction, and other
requirements relating to purity and safety of their materials of construction.
Stage 5: pH
Alkaline Neutralizer Post-Filter, Desalination Sea Water usually has very low pH
making this water very acidic, the Alkaline Neutralizer Post-Filter will adjust
the pH level to 7.0 Neutral Water as per World Health Organization for Drinking
Water Standards.
Stage 6: Ultraviolet
disinfection is a means of killing or rendering harmless microorganisms in a
dedicated environment. These microorganisms can range from bacteria and viruses
to algae and protozoa. Ultra Violet disinfection is used to disinfect and
sterilize Permeate Product Water after the Desalination Process. A major
advantage of UV treatment is that it is capable of disinfecting water faster
than chlorine without cumbersome retention tanks and harmful chemicals. UV
treatment systems are also extremely cost efficient!

Seawater typically
contains from 32,000 – 45,000 ppm of total dissolved solids (TDS). The World
Health Organization has established a maximum TDS level of less than 500 ppm for
drinking water standards. Reverse Osmosis water treatment technology is capable
of making seawater drinkable by reducing the total dissolved solids by 99% or
more. Ampac USA Sea
Water Desalination Watermakers are
specifically designed for those applications.
Desalination of Seawater and Treatment
of Brackish Water were
among the first practical applications of reverse
osmosis.
RO technology is particularly cost-effective, requiring lower capital costs than
alternate treatment methods such as evaporation and distillation. In addition,
Reverse Osmosis is far less energy intense which lowers operating cost.
AMPAC USA Sea Water
Desalination Watermakers are
effective at lower pressure than older types, and also produce higher permeate
water to feed water ratio. This all contributes to lower cost-per-gallon of
permeate water produced.
AMPAC USA Sea Water
Desalination Watermakers will
feed raw water through a series of filters to remove solid impurities as well as
to treat turbidity and other problems.
The RO
Booster Pump will
increase the pressure to force the feed water through the reverse osmosis
membrane, resulting in delicious, salt free, purified water exceeding the World
Health Organization Standards for Drinking Water Applications.
AMPAC USA Sea Water
Desalination Watermakers combined
with automated, precision fabrication result in the most consistent product
performance available in the Sea Water Desalination today.
