Pre Treatment Chemicals

Raw water is usually sourced from natural water resources, that is surface waters and springs such as sweet water, brackish water, or seawater which will contain many soluble chemical compounds which could cause problems when used for industrial or domestic use.

Water treatment removes contaminants and undesirable components, or reduces their concentration so that the water becomes fit for its desired end-use. In general, the following objectionable substances may be present in the raw water:


  • Particulates in suspended or colloidal form.
  • Inorganic compounds which precipitate or give rise to accumulations when their concentration is increased, or the water is heated, or the pH is changed.
  • Organic compounds which will decay/decompose/degrade the drinking and service water systems due to their toxic properties.
  • Bacterial impurities which are the cause of heavy growths of microorganisms, and thus, the formation of coatings and slime in pipelines, reservoirs, and heat exchangers.

In view of the above, the raw water must be treated or clarified prior to being used as makeup water in most utility processes. Clarification removes suspended and dissolved solids, bacteria, and other forms of impurities to help prevent system scale, corrosion, and fouling.


Water treatment is any process that improves the quality of water to make it more acceptable for a specific end-use. It removes contaminants and undesirable components or reduces their concentration to fit the water for its intended use.


The processes involved in removing contaminants include:

  • Physical processes such as settling and filtration
  • Chemical processes such as disinfection and coagulation
  • Biological processes

A combination selected from the above processes is used for municipal drinking water treatment and raw water treatment for industrial purposes globally.

Physical Process

Sedimentation for solids separation that is the removal of suspended solids Filtration to remove particles from water either by passage through a sand bed.

Products

Kimberlite Water Plus provide a broad spectrum of coagulants & flocculants in liquid & dry powder form for raw water treatment applications.

  • Polymeric Coagulants

  • Defoamers
Chemical Process

Pre-chlorination for algae control and preventing biological growth.
Aeration along with pre-chlorination for removal of dissolved iron & traces of manganese.
Coagulation for flocs formation Coagulant aids (polyelectrolytes) – to improve coagulation and for more robust floc formation.
Disinfection for killing bacteria, viruses and other pathogens.

Application
  • Good floc formation.
  • Efficient removal of colloidal silica.
  • Improved clarity in filtrate.
