Two systems for cleaner discharge: evaporation for zero liquid discharge, ion exchange for hard water.

A field-level look at how Indian manufacturing sites are meeting Zero Liquid Discharge norms and protecting boiler assets — covering our Multi Effect Evaporator (MEE) plant and Water Softening plant ranges.

MULTI EFFECT EVAPORATOR — ZLD
MEE Plant — Advanced Multi Effect Evaporator System for Zero Liquid Discharge

Advanced Multi Effect Evaporator System for Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD).

High performance MEE plant solutions engineered for industrial wastewater concentration, water recovery, and salt recovery — built to run continuously under real plant conditions, not just on paper.

Every effect in the train is sized to pull maximum evaporation from the steam already on site, so the plant does more with the energy you're already paying for.

Process Route

How the MEE Plant Works

01

Preheating Stage

Wastewater is preheated using recovered steam energy.

02

Evaporation Stage

Multiple effects evaporate water efficiently using low energy consumption.

03

Condensation Stage

Pure water vapor is condensed and recovered.

04

Concentration Stage

Remaining liquid becomes high-density brine solution.

Facing Hard Water Problems in Your Industry?

Hard water contains high levels of:

  • Calcium (Ca²⁺)
  • Magnesium (Mg²⁺)
  • Bicarbonates and sulphates

These minerals cause:

  • Scaling in boilers and pipelines
  • Reduced equipment efficiency
  • Higher energy consumption
  • Frequent maintenance issues
If not treated properly, hard water can significantly increase operational costs.

Solution: Advanced Water Softening Plant

We provide high-performance Water Softening Plants designed to remove hardness-causing minerals from water using advanced ion exchange technology.

Water Softening Plant converts hard water into soft water by replacing calcium and magnesium ions with sodium ions.

Result: Scale-free, industrial-grade soft water.
Process Route

How the Water Softening Plant Works

01

Hard Water Entry

Raw water enters the resin bed containing sodium ions.

02

Ion Exchange Process

Calcium and magnesium ions are replaced with sodium ions.

03

Soft Water Output

Treated water becomes free from hardness and scaling properties.

Regeneration Process

After saturation, the resin is regenerated using:

  • Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution (brine)

Our advanced design ensures:

  • Minimum salt consumption
  • Efficient regeneration cycle
  • Reduced wastewater discharge

Applications

  • Boiler feed water systems
  • Cooling tower systems
  • Textile industries
  • Laundry & washing plants
  • Food processing industries
  • Distilleries
  • Industrial manufacturing units
