Do you need to remove or increase your reverse osmosis system's hydrogen sulfide removal efficiency?
The industrial water treatment market has many forms of water treatment processes. Most of us would agree that maintaining high water standards and quality requires using multiple treatment systems to achieve results. Let’s face it, we do not win or get a “that a boy” when we design and build the best reverse osmosis system.
When we turn the brand-new water system on, the water has a "rotten egg odor." Yes, that is an embarrassing moment!
The problem is we typically design around what we can see or read. When was the last time you reviewed a water sample that provided details of how much-dissolved gas was in the water? Most likely never. A typical water treatment system may deploy reverse osmosis as the primary treatment method, and why true RO will remove particles that have size and weight (ions and molecules) typically defined as a certain size (micron), but RO does nothing to remove the dissolved gases that are already entrained within the water naturally or were created by adjusting the pH.
