Business Case - AquaTex™ RO is an advanced water purification (AWP) plant for treating and disinfecting feedwater to produce drinking water. Whether a resort, masterplanned community, military base, or municipality, AquaTex™ RO is compact, versatile, automated and affordable.

Technology - AquaTex™ RO uses a three-stage treatment process: prefiltration, reverse osmosis (RO), and ultraviolet treatment to completely disinfect the feedwater and generate potable water. The reclamation process begins by first collecting the feedwater and passing it through a 10-micron vibrating shaker screen and 5-micron tubular backwash filters for loose particle separation. The number of additional backwash filters is dependent on the size and content of the wastestream. The filtrate then flows through the RO membrane to reduce particles to a 0.0001 micron level. The final stage is complete disinfection in a ultraviolet chamber. After water passes through a reverse osmosis filter, it is essentially pure water. The treated water is suitable for human consumption.
