Lime Softening
Reduce the amount of calcium and magnesium in your feedwater and minimize scaling with our lime-softening technologies. Our lime-softening solutions are a win-win scenario for companies that need to significantly lower the amount of total dissolved solids (TDS) in feed and wastewater, while improving production and reducing cost. Although lime softening isn’t the ideal solution for every hardness and scaling challenge, it solves many problems. When combined with other treatment processes, it can prove to the most reliable.
Advantages:
-
-
- Proven method that’s easy to use for bulk hardness removal
- Good fit for ZLD and near-ZLD plants
- Best suited for very high-hardness water
-
Disadvantages:
-
-
- High chemical consumption
- Can experience high variability and system upset
-
Custom-engineered solutions like lime water softening will alleviate your hardness and scaling issues.
