Drinking Water

Mains, reservoir and well-fed systems share the same problem: water that is clean at the source picks up microbiological load along the line before it reaches the user. Standing time in reservoirs, dead legs and biofilm create a risk layer invisible at the measurement point.

Disinfection layer

NIMBUS systems apply demand-based hypochlorous acid dosing at reservoir inlets and outlets or on the network pumping line. Free-chlorine measurement on the line continuously corrects the dose; over-chlorination and the associated taste-and-odour complaints and trihalomethane formation are minimised. The penetrating power of hypochlorous acid on biofilm also lowers the network’s long-term microbiological load.

Treatment layer

Where the source water does not meet drinking-water parameters — turbidity, iron-manganese, nitrate, salinity or microbiological load — the STRATUS stages come into play. Ultrafiltration establishes the physical barrier, reverse osmosis separates dissolved contaminants, and UV acts as a final barrier. The stage combination is set from the raw-water analysis; the goal is to stay safely below the regulatory parameters.

Typical installations

Municipal drinking-water reservoirs, drinking-water bottling plants, hotel and residential water tanks, and campuses and production sites fed by well water. Capacity ranges from compact packaged systems to network scale engineered under CIRRUS.
