KC-BW4040 Brackish Water RO Membranes

KC-BW 4040 Series are brackish water reverse osmosis membrane elements developed for commercial, modular, and medium-capacity industrial water treatment systems requiring stable salt rejection, reliable permeate flow, and efficient operation. Based on aromatic polyamide technology, the series provides dependable desalination performance under low-pressure brackish water operating conditions.

The standard BW type is typically used for brackish water, surface water, groundwater, and tap water treatment with feed water TDS up to approximately 5,000 mg/L. FR, HF, and ZM options are available for fouling-prone water, higher flow requirements, and higher-rejection applications, making the series suitable for flexible RO system design and compact industrial water treatment projects.

    FAQ

    FAQ

    Q1.  How should I choose between BW, BW-FR, BW-HF, and BW-ZM types?
    Standard BW is suitable for general brackish water treatment, BW-FR is used for complex or fouling-prone feed water, BW-HF is selected for higher permeate flow, and BW-ZM is used when higher salt rejection is required.

    Q2. What feed water is suitable for KC-BW 4040 Series?
    The standard BW type is typically used for surface water, groundwater, tap water, and brackish water with feed water TDS up to approximately 5,000 mg/L. FR or ZM types may be selected for more challenging feed water depending on system design.

    Q3. Can KC-BW 4040 Series be used for reclaimed water treatment?
    Yes. BW-FR models are especially suitable for reclaimed water, wastewater reuse, RO concentrate recovery, and other feed water conditions with higher fouling potential.

    Q4. Is customization available?
    Customization is available for membrane performance and sheet structure based on system requirements.
