Water
Treatment

A water treatment plant purifies the water we use daily, making it healthier and safer to drink. It is a system composed of several elements that work together to remove impurities, bacteria, heavy metals, and other harmful substances, ensuring high-quality water for families, the environment, and industrial activities. It can be used in a wide range of domestic and industrial applications.

Water Softeners

Water softeners remove the hardness of water, i.e., the presence of minerals such as calcium and magnesium that can cause scale and reduce the efficiency of systems.

There are three main types of water softeners:

Ion exchange softeners

The most common, they use ion exchange resins that capture calcium and magnesium ions, releasing sodium ions.

Magnetic softeners

Less common, they use magnetic fields to modify the crystalline structure of hardness minerals, promoting precipitation.

Desanders

Desanders are devices designed to remove solid impurities from water. These impurities can cause
various problems,including:

Problems with the heat exchanger of the heat generator

Metal residues from systems with radiators, which can cause the heat exchanger to puncture

Reduction in heat exchange efficiency

Impurities can deposit on heat exchangers, reducing their efficiency and increasing energy consumption

There are two main types of desanders:

Magnetic desanders

They use a magnetic field to attract ferromagnetic impurities.

Cyclonic desanders

They use the principle of centrifugal force to separate impurities from water.

Polyphosphate Feeders

Polyphosphate feeders are devices that gradually release polyphosphates into the water. Polyphosphates are chemical compounds that prevent the formation of scale and protect pipes from corrosion. Scale can cause various problems, including:

Reduced water flow

Scale reduces the diameter of pipes, reducing water flow and pressure.

Increased energy consumption

Scale in heat exchangers reduces heating and hot water efficiency, increasing energy
consumption.

There are different types of polyphosphate feeders:

Proportional feeders

Automatically adjust the dosage based on the water flow, ideal for heating systems.

Cartridge feeders

Periodic replacement of the cartridge, a compact and practical solution.

Electromechanical feeders (dosing pumps)

Electronic control of dosage, maximum precision and control.Indicated for the use of anti-legionella products and protection.

Cartridge feeders

Periodic replacement of the cartridge, a compact and practical solution.

Corrosion and Anti-Algae Inhibitors

Corrosion inhibitors are chemical products that slow down or prevent metal corrosion in heating systems. Corrosion is an electrochemical process that deteriorates metals over time; it can cause perforation of metal pipes and deterioration of heating elements. Anti-algae products are indicated in all low-temperature systems and serve to prevent the formation of algae, reducing exchange and flow rate.

Corrosion inhibitors are:

Organic, anodic, and cathodic inhibitors

They guarantee a pH range that does not fall below 6.5 (acidic) or above 8.5 (basic)

Descalers

Descalers are chemical products used to remove scale that forms inside pipes, fittings, and heat exchangers.

The main descalers are:

Heat exchanger descalers

Remove scale and deposits from heat exchangers, improving efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

Toilet bowl descalers

Remove scale and stains from toilet bowls, restoring the functioning of the flushing mechanism. Available in gels, liquids, or tablets. Plumbing system descalers

Plumbing system descalers

Remove scale and deposits from pipes and fittings, improving water flow.

Antibacterial/Anti-Legionella Products

Legionella is a pathogenic bacterium present in water that can cause Legionnaires’ disease, a serious lung infection. The proliferation of bacteria, particularly Legionella, is favored by temperatures between 25°C and 50°C and by stagnant water. To combat the growth of bacteria and Legionella, biocides are used.

There are two main types of biocides:

Chlorine-based biocides

Sodium hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide, dichloroisocyanurate.

Hydrogen peroxide-based biocides

Hydrogen peroxide, stabilized hydrogen peroxide.

Antifreeze Products

Antifreeze products are used to protect water systems from freezing during winter periods and for protection in forced circulation solar thermal systems.

There are two main types of antifreeze products:

Solar panel antifreeze

Propylene glycol with long-lasting organic inhibition, stable to thermal stress

Heating system antifreeze

Non-toxic, propylene glycol-based, inhibited to provide excellent protection against frost and corrosion.

Sealants and Lubricants

Sealants are products used to prevent water leaks from joints, fittings, and threads. Lubricants, on
the other hand, facilitate the installation and maintenance of systems.

There are different types of sealants and lubricants:

Anaerobic sealants

Harden in the absence of air.

Silicone sealants

Silicone-based, neutral sealants, acidic sealants.

Water filters and purifiers

Water purifiers are devices installed under the kitchen sink that aim to improve the quality of drinking water from the tap.The main goal is to remove impurities, odors, and unpleasant tastes from the water, making it more pleasant to drink and use for preparing food and beverages. There are various types of water purifiers on the market, based on different operating principles:

Activated carbon filters

Remove chlorine, microplastics, sand, odors, and unpleasant tastes.

Ion exchange filters

Reduce the hardness of water, i.e. the content of calcium and magnesium.

Reverse osmosis

A complex process that removes most contaminants, including mineral salts, heavy metals, and microorganisms.
