Lab scale CTBD treatment unit

Integration and evaluation of the conventional (pressure, temperature, conductivity, turbidity flowmeter etc), as well as, the customized (Fe2+, SO42+ and Cl-) sensors will be performed ensuring alignment with the KPI’s set in WP1. Using membranes (4-inch diameter) and modules provided by NI and CUT, along a dedicated pre-treatment testing system (CUT), process conditions and configurations of the CTBD lab unit will be optimized. Zero liquid discharge will be introduced though membrane distillation, crystallisation subprocess developed by NCSRD, THK & CUT.
