The consequences of neglecting the maintenance of the desalination plant

Maintenance of a desalination plant is of great importance in maintaining the quality of the water produced and your plant’s quality. It also reduces operating costs and many other advantages that you can learn from here.

What are the consequences of neglecting the maintenance of the desalination plant?

• The possibility of malfunctions that are difficult to repair.
• If the plant suffers severe problems, the repair process will take more time than necessary for maintenance, which will disrupt your business.
• Low water quality for some time.

Some diseases are caused by neglecting the maintenance of a desalination plant

Shigellosis

It is a bacterial disease caused by the bacterium Shigella that affects the human digestive system and damages the lining of the intestines, causing watery or bloody diarrhea, abdominal cramps, vomiting, and nausea.

These symptoms can be treated with antibiotics and good hygiene practices.

Cholera

The cholera bacterium (Vibrio cholera) is responsible for this disease. It produces toxins in the digestive system and causes nausea, vomiting, and watery diarrhea that leads to dehydration and kidney failure.

Liver Inflammation

Hepatitis is a viral disease, the symptoms of which are pale skin, loss of appetite, fatigue, discomfort, and high temperature, and if it persists for a long time, it may be fatal and lead to death.

Inflammation of the stomach and intestines

Gastroenteritis is caused by infection with various viruses, such as norovirus, which symptoms are vomiting, headache, and fever, and usually appear one to two days after infection.

The disease can be serious among infants, young children, and people with disabilities.

Amoeba

Amoeba occurs when contaminated water is swallowed, and symptoms include fever, chills, and watery diarrhea.

Giardiasis infection

It is caused by a parasite called Giardia lamblia that lives in water and infects the cells of the intestinal lining, causing bloating, excess gas, watery diarrhea, and weight loss.

Other diseases

A person who drinks water contaminated with chemicals can suffer from the following diseases:

• Change in brain function.
• Damage to the immune and reproductive system.
• Disorders of the kidneys, heart, and blood vessels.
• Cancer.
• Hormonal imbalance.

It is worth noting that swimming in polluted water sources can lead to infections of the respiratory tract and eyes and the appearance of skin rashes.

Why Water Care for Desalination Plant Maintenance

• Professionalism and credibility in carrying out tasks and commitment to the specified time.
• Completion of all tasks by experts in the field of modern technology.
• Full engineering supervision for the maintenance of all types of pumps and the necessary spare parts and changing filters and filters periodically.
• We carry out periodic and preventive maintenance for all components of water desalination plants.
• Continuous development and search for the latest and best technologies.

What happens when you request maintenance service

Maintenance of reverse osmosis plants, including the following:

• Providing the original spare parts needed for the station.
• Free maintenance of the station during the contract period, with the customer bearing the value of spare parts.
• Providing all station chemicals and filters at competitive prices.
• Monthly or weekly visits according to the customer’s desire and the station’s need.

Immediate maintenance within 24 hours for all desalination plants of different sizes, including:

• Maintenance and replacement of pumps as needed
• Wash the membranes or replace them according to the condition of the membranes.
• Replace the filter filling, whether it is sand or carbon.
• Maintenance of the station’s electrical panel or any electrical extensions for the station.
• Maintenance of any leaks in the plumbing of the station.
• Providing all original spare parts, chemicals, and filters at competitive prices.

Maintenance steps for a desalination plant:

There are many industrial activities that depend entirely on water treatment plants. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the periodic maintenance of desalination plants, wastewater treatment systems, and gray water treatment. Here are the details of the maintenance work that must be carried out on a regular basis:

• Repair of all mechanical works of the stations to work to the fullest.
• Monthly visits by the maintenance team on a monthly basis according to the type of station.
• Provide the necessary filters.
• Ensure that all necessary chemicals are available.
• Examine the raw water and the generated water on each visit to ensure the quality of the water and not to increase the salinity.
• A permanent presence of a technician trained on how to operate the station and change the filters if necessary, in the event of any technical failure in the station.
• In the event of any emergency failure, the trained technician will contact the company performing the installation and maintenance work to set an emergency appointment.
• Replacing the membranes that specialize in desalination usually needs to be changed according to the amount of water used, and it usually ranges from six months to one or two years depending on the salinity of the water in the artesian well and the amount of its use and the cost of one membrane according to the size and type.
• Maintenance and replacement of pumps as needed.
• Wash the membranes or replace them according to the condition of the membranes.
• Replace the filter filling, whether it is sand or carbon.
• Reviewing the station’s electrical panel or any electrical installations specific to the station.
• Ensure that there are no leaks in the station plumbing.
