Below procedure is according P&ID no 2.
1. Stop the high-pressure pump (4), and stop
the iSave (11).
2. Stop the seawater supply pump (1).
3. Disconnect pipe in joint (9) and connect the
pipe to low-pressure “Full flow cleaning”
joint (16).
4. Plug pipe in joint (9).
5. Open valve (16).
6. Pump mixed cleaning solutions to the vessel
at conditions of low flow rate and low
pressure to displace the process water. Use
only enough pressure to compensate for the
pressure drop from feed to concentrate. The
pressure should be low enough that
essentially no or little permeate is produced.
A low pressure minimizes re-deposition of
dirt on the membrane. Dump the brine/
concentrate to prevent dilution of the
cleaning solution.
7. Recycle: After the process water is displaced,
cleaning solution will be present in the
concentrate stream. Recycle the cleaning
solution from the piping to the cleaning
solution tank.
Below procedure is according P&ID no 1.
1. Stop the high-pressure pump (4), and stop
the iSave (11).
2. Stop the seawater supply pump (1).
3. Close valve (9) and open valve (16).
4. Pump mixed cleaning solutions to the vessel
at conditions of low flow rate and low
pressure to displace the process water. Use
only enough pressure to compensate for the
pressure drop from feed to concentrate.
The pressure should be low enough that
essentially no or little permeate is produced.
A low pressure minimizes re-deposition of
dirt on the membrane. Dump the brine/
concentrate to prevent dilution of the
cleaning solution.
5. Recycle: After the process water is displaced,
cleaning solution will be present in the
concentrate/brine stream. Recycle the
cleaning solution from the piping to the
cleaning solution tank.
6. Turn of the pump and allow the elements to
soak.
7. Feed the cleaning solution at high flow into
the “full flow cleaning” adapter (7). The high
flow rate flushes out the foulants removed
from the membrane surface by the cleaning.
8. Flush RO permeate or deionised water into
the “full flow cleaning” adapter (7).
Flush out the cleaning solution. It is essential
that the water used for the final pre-flush is
pre-filtered to a level described in the
Data sheet.
9. Open valve (9) and flush through the iSave.
The iSave may start to rotate backwards
– this is OK.
10. When flushing is finalised – assure that no
foulants remain in the piping or valve (9).
11. Close the high pressure “full flow cleaning”
valve (7) and close valve (16).
