Aqualink | Water Purification System

Autonomous and mobile water purification unit Aqualink system collects surface water, prior to filter and remove bacteria, viruses, amoebas or parasites responsible for diseases such as cholera, hepatitis, gastroenteritis, polio … The Aqualink deep filtration system consists of a combination of membranes, scrubbers and filters enabling clean water supply whatever the conditions of hygiene. The system is self-powered with photo-voltaic solar panels.

Key Features

Ultrafiltration

– 0,01 μm is a filtering system by microporous membranes. These membranes are called “low pressure”, because of its transmembrane pressure that is around 0.2 to 2 bar. For drinking water, ultrafiltration is characterized by a cutoff threshold of the order of 0.01 microns. All larger molecules are stopped (pollen, algae, parasites, bacteria, viruses, germs and large organic molecules), letting at the end a perfectly clarified and disinfected water, without using chemicals.

Reverse Osmosis

- 0,0001 μm membrane used in RO is a semipermeable membrane. It is composed of two filter layers. The principle is that water charged with salts, viruses, bacteria, organic matter … is injected through the membrane under high pressure, thanks to a pump. Under the effect of a difference of osmotic pressure, the water is filtered by the membrane, which make it drinkable. The impurities are rejected during this process by a sweeping flow.
