Project overview
A palm oil major sought an efficient seawater treatment solution to manage multiple water streams for both industrial use and safe disposal.
Thermax implemented a comprehensive treatment system, including pre-treatment and reverse osmosis, to handle high-salinity water. The solution improved water recovery, reduced energy consumption, and delivered reliable, cost-effective performance.
Challenges
- A palm oil major required a seawater treatment solution to manage and treat diverse streams suitable for marine disposal and industrial use.
Solution
- Thermax provided a comprehensive pre-treatment setup, including filtration systems and a reverse osmosis (RO) skid, to treat over
Result
- The solution resulted in 45% water recovery, TDS reduction up to <0.1 mg/l, and significant operational cost savings through improved energy efficiency.
