Description

The first large industrial plant was commissioned in March 2024 for the Rimac plant, Nevera, with a treatment volume of 100 m³/day. The task is to produce drinking water from rainwater in the Rimac industrial park and in electric car production. 
Before the water enters the cistern, it is pre-cleaned by the PURAIN filter. A Biox pump pumps the rainwater from the rainwater tank into the AQUALOOP membrane tanks. These are equipped with 11 membrane stations consisting of 66 membrane cartridges. The central filtration pump pumps the rainwater through the UF Aqualoop membrane into the clear water tank. The system supplies up to 100 m³ of treated roof run-off water per day. The UV system installed in the pressure pipe is used for additional disinfection of the water before it is passed on to the consumer fittings via the pump system (PROFI).
