In an era of escalating water scarcity and tightening environmental regulations, treating complex industrial effluents and landfill leachate demands more than conventional methods. Disc Tube Reverse Osmosis (DTRO) has emerged as a robust, engineered solution—specifically designed to conquer wastewater streams that challenge traditional membrane systems. How DTRO Works: Engineering Against Fouling Unlike standard spiral-wound RO membranes with narrow flow channels prone to clogging, DTRO features a patented disc-and-tube module design: Wide Flow Channels (1.5–3 mm): Tolerates high suspended solids and SDI values up to 50. Turbulent Cross-Flow: Minimizes particle deposition on membrane surfaces. Modular Configuration: Individual membrane discs are easily replaceable, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. High-Pressure Operation: Efficiently separates contaminants even in viscous or high-salinity feeds. Key Advantages Driving Adoption ✅ Superior Fouling Resistance: Handles landfill leachate, chemical wastewater, and oily effluents with minimal pre-treatment.
✅ High Recovery Rates: Achieves 75–90% water recovery (vs. 50–70% in conventional RO), significantly reducing brine volume.
✅ Consistent Effluent Quality: Removes >99% of heavy metals, ammonia, COD, nitrates, and micro-pollutants. Meets stringent discharge standards (e.g., EPA, EU directives).
✅ Operational Efficiency: Lower chemical cleaning frequency, extended membrane life (>3–5 years), and energy-optimized pumps cut lifecycle costs.
✅ Scalable & Adaptable: From containerized mobile units for emergency response to large-scale permanent installations. Proven Applications Worldwide
