Reverse osmosis is a baromembrane process that separates water from a solution as a result of pressure. The water and the water solution are separated by a membrane that allows only the water molecules to pass through. The case study represents a reverse osmosis equipment that purifies water for a technological process. In order to observe and test the efficiency of this system it was taken water samples in different phases of the process. In analyzing the water samples it was taken into account the following parameters: manganese, iron, ammonium, turbidity, ph levels, conductivity, permanganate index, water hardness and chlorides. The values of these parameters were compared to the limiting values stipulated by the law. Using the two-stage reverse osmosis process a high efficiency will be achieved. Received: July 31, 2012 Accepted: July 31, 2012 Revised: August 10, 2012 Available online: October 31, 2012 Keywords: membrane, baromembrane processes, water conductivity, water treatment INTRODUCTION Osmosis is a natural phenomenon which occurs when two water solutions with different ion concentration are separated by a semi-permeable membrane [1]. The semi-permeable membranes only allow the water molecules to pass through, therefore the water would flow towards the highly concentrated solution until the two solutions are equally concentrated. For the water to flow towards the less concentrated solution, a force should be applied on the highly concentrated solution. This is the reverse osmosis process, which provides water separation from different water sources. The membrane is an interposed structure between two phases or compartments which can prevent or aggravate substance transport or which can allow only certain particles to pass through. The separation will take place on the membrane surface or inside the membrane, where the molecular interactions take place. The permeability trough membrane implies both the occurrence of diffusion and the solubility of the diffusing species, but in order for the components to be transferred through the membrane, a driving force is necessary [1]. In the reverse osmosis process the driving force is pressure. On an economic level, the membrane is supposed to block some substances and to allow the water molecules to pass through. Fig.1. Membran schematic diagram [1]
2 MATERIALS AND METHODS 1. The Experimental Equipment / System The paper presents a reverse osmosis equipment that purifies water pulled from a 35 meter deep well. The resulting water is used for a tehnological process. The process optimum functioning parameters are equal to the drinking water quality parameters, as regulated by the 458/2002 and 311/2004 laws. Fig.2. Two-stage reverse osmosis equipment The reverse osmosis equipment is supplied with water from a well, using a 32 mm wide pipe, with a 5.7 m 3 /h flow. A 5 µm filter stops any contingent impurities and manometers measure the filter clogging degree both upstream and downstream. The water hardness is measured by a device located before the manometer which is placed in front of the filter. The samples to be analyzed are collected from the tap, located after the filter. The pressure needed for the reverse osmosis process is produced by a vertical multistage centrifugal pump. Downstream from it two manometers are installed, the first belongs to the pump, and the second is meant for observing the pressure of water entering the first stage of reverse osmosis. At this stage a polyamide and polysulphones spiralmembrane module is provided. The first stage permeate quantity is measured by a flow gauge set on the permeate pipe. The first stage reject is redirected towards the second stage of the reverse osmosis process, where there is another polyamide and polysulphones spiral-membrane module. The second stage permeate is collected together with the first stage permeate. Some of the concentrate resulted from the second stage of the reverse osmosis process is recycled - it re-enters the process right before the reverse osmosis pump, and the rest of it, is evacuated in the sewer system. The samples for the two reverse osmosis stages are provided by the two faucets installed after each membrane module. The resulting permeate and concentrate quantities are determined by flow gauges found downstream from the membrane modules. A pipe that would allow a certain amount of permeate re-enter back in the reverse osmosis system is optional.

As shown above, special valves are placed for analytical sampling. 2. Methods of Water Analysis The water samples have been collected on a weekly basis and have been tested for the following indicators: turbidity, ph, conductivity, permanganate index, hardness, chlorides and iron. The samples were analyzed by an accredited laboratory; therefore the methods of analysis stipulated by the laws and standards in force were respected. The procedures took place at a 20 o C, ± 2 o C room temperature, as stipulated by STAS 6300/1998 and a humidity ratio of less than 65%. In order to determine the turbidity levels, the samples were analyzed congruent to SR EN ISO 7027/2001, using a stationary LP 2000 turbidimeter with a microprocessor provided with a tank and a tank cover. The turbidimeter s precision is ±0.5 FTU at a 20 o C temperature. The ph level was determined by the analysis method stipulated by SR ISO 10523/2009, using a laboratory ph meter ThermoFisher Scientific Orion 3-Star, made in USA. The ph meter is provided with a temperature adjustment device and with a thermometer readable to 0.5 o C. The ph measurement accuracy is 0.01 units. The electronic conductivity was determined using the analysis method stipulated by SR EN 27888/97, using a laboratory conductivity meter - ThermoFisher Scientific Orion 3-Star, made in USA. The device has a relative accuracy of 3.5% of the average readings and is provided with a ±0.1 o C relative accuracy thermometer.

It should be emphasized that the value of a certain parameter - conductivity, which indicates the chemical quality of water, i.e. the quantity of substances dissolved in water, is drastically reduced after passing through membranes (e.g. from 1938 µs/cm to 47.3 ms/cm at stage I, respectively 32 ms/cm at stage II). Chlorides, i.e. the chlorine combined with other chemical elements, also indicate the chemical quality of water. In the source water they almost reach the maximum accepted concentration, or sometimes even exceed it, but after stage I the values drop to 9.4 mg/l, respectively 8.5 mg/l. The source water is clean, organic substances are found in small quantities. This is reflected by the permanganate index or by the oxidizability of water that also indicates the chemical quality of water, the source water having values between 1.34 mgo 2 /l and 0.19 mgo 2 /l, which are below the maximum accepted limits. Nevertheless, by using the reverse osmosis process, the values dropped from 0.19 to CONCLUSIONS In the end we can appreciate that using the reverse osmosis in different technological processes allows for the values of different physico-chemical parameters to be adjusted in a way that can be difficult to obtain by using other methods. Using the two-stage reverse osmosis provides an increased efficiency. REFERENCES 1.
