Hydrolab engaged Davis & Shirtliff in the design, supply and installation of an 8m3/hr Ultrafiltration and Reverse Osmosis system to be applied in treating raw water from their borehole for the purposes of commercial packaging and bottling 

D&S undertook the project, carried out detailed water analysis and designed a Reverse Osmosis (RO) plant with recovery of 65% i.e. treated water to the feed water ratio 

Water to the Dayliff RO equipment is supplied pre-treated using a Ultrafiltration plant to ensure that the feed water does not have a Silt Density Index (SDI) of more than 2.5. The plant was designed to high specifications according to the Diageo Engineering Standards which are heavily based on the European Standards. 

Our scope included the supply of the low pressures booster pump, dosing systems (pH, SMBS and Antiscalant dosing), Micron pre-filter (5 micron), DRO8/4 water treatment equipment, 5000 L Clean water buffer tank, Clean water transfer pump, the CIP chemical tank and CIP pump. 

The client now uses this plant coupled with an automated bottling machine to treat and pack the renowned brand drinking water known as glacier water
