Course description
Process industry professionals now recognize the value that a reverse osmosis unit adds to a water system, in terms of both product quality and reduction in the recurring costs associated with ion exchange systems.
It is surprising then, 40 years after its inception, how poorly many reverse osmosis systems are designed and operated. Any potential operational cost savings are thrown away by excessive cleaning and
Reverse Osmosis Monitoring and Troubleshooting training course will give you an Excellent knowledge of basic operation principles, layout requirements, associated components and maintenance practices for reverse osmosis (RO) plants.
