Procedure of Mineral Water Processing in Pakistan
The first step for setting up a Water Purification Plant is the analysis of source water.
After the chemical analysis, the specifications of the purification plant are set. In purification plant, source water is stored into feed water tank and then passes through the sand filter for preliminary water filtration.
In next stage, water passes through the dosing pump-I, where chlorine is added to kill the germs in water.
After the chlorination, water passes through carbon filter. It helps in maintenance of proper odor and taste of water. It also removes chlorine
from water.
Furthermore, water passes through dosing pump-II, where Sodium Meta Bi-sulfate is added. It helps in de-chlorination of water.
Water is filtered next and passes through dosing pump-III, where Antiscalant is added. It prevents scaling of membrane from Calcium, Magnesium and Biological growth.
Water, then passes through Reverse Osmosis module. This stage of the process makes water clear from all the contamination and minute particles.
In next step, water passes through dosing pump-IV, where Minerals are added for taste development. After this stage, water undergoes Ultra Violet treatment to avoid any contamination from bacteria and other microorganisms.
At last stage, water passes through automatic washing, filling and capping plant. Here water is filled into bottles.
After filling, bottles are taken into the warehouse or supplied to the retailers.
