The contactors will operate in combo mode where a small amount of nitrogen and vacuum will be used.
O2 is corrosive and can oxidise many materials, such as piping and equipment, in the power and industrial sectors. Carbon dioxide (CO2) can also negatively affect EDI and ion exchange performance. Liqui-Cel Contactors offer a modular solution for O2 and CO2 removal without chemicals.

SpiraSep technology enters municipal market
Ashbrook Simon-Hartley signed an exclusive agreement with TriSep Corporation of Goleta, California, USA, to apply SpiraSep ultrafiltration membrane technology in the municipal water and wastewater industry. "With this agreement, Ashbrook Simon-Hartley brings the advantages of spiral geometry – combined with a patented high-flow, low-pressure membrane – to applications such as tertiary filtration and membrane bioreactors," explained Robert T. Williams, president of Ashbrook Simon-Hartley.
The SpiraSep membrane forms a strong, backflushable structure with discrete feed channels that allow high-flow levels and efficient air scour (where appropriate) when arranged in a proprietary spiral configuration.

Compact plant treats wastewater for up to 5,000 pe
The compact and fully integrated wastewater treatment plant, called Plant 125, treats municipal wastewater for populations between 1,000 and 5,000. Plant 125, an activated sludge process, features a very small footprint and incorporates screening, anoxic treatment, extended aeration, settlement, sludge thickening, sludge storage and washwater facilities.
