Title:

Embedded RO Plant Monitoring (ROMON) System for (500–1000 LPH) RO Plants

Area:

Earth, Atmosphere & Environment Sciences

Focus Area:

Water-based Technologies

Status:

The developed ROMON system has been incorporated with RO plants in 35 villages across 4 districts (Churu, Jhunjhunu, Jaipur and Ajmer) of Rajasthan .

Social Benefits:

RO is an inevitable requirement for arid areas. The system is developed particularly for Rajasthan, which lacks potable water. The system has been developed for remote monitoring and predictive maintenance of RO systems. It has been deployed in several districts of Rajasthan. If supported by Government/ CSR/ NGO, this technology can be implemented for other states as well.

Developing Agency:

CSIR-Central Electronics Engineering Research Institute (CEERI)

Technology Readiness Label:

7

Funding Agency:

Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR)

Brief Description

Description :

This technology involves the development of high-capacity ceramic membrane modules designed for pre-treatment of turbid water and polishing of arsenic- and iron-contaminated groundwater using microfiltration techniques. It is also suitable for treating river water by removing turbidity and suspended particulate matter, reducing turbidity levels to below 1 NTU. The system features a modular, scalable design that can be configured in battery arrays and integrated with reverse osmosis systems for enhanced purification. It supports large-scale water treatment with plant capacities reaching up to 1 lakh litres per day, operating for extended durations. The technology enables supply of safe drinking water at significantly reduced cost. Key Features: • High-capacity modular system scalable for large-scale applications • Capable of treating up to ~100,000 litres per day • Semi-automatic and user-friendly operation • Modular battery design enabling flexible deployment • Reduces turbidity to below 1 NTU for effective pre-treatment • Compatible with RO systems for integrated purification
