Petrochemical Industry

Purified water is required in production applications for a wide variety of purposes in the petrochemical industry due to its varying degrees of purity for different purposes. Water is perhaps the most widely available raw material in product manufacturing; it is used in product development, testing and analysis, product preparation, cleaning of production machinery and sterilization of tools/equipment in the form of steam. Given the type of raw water source; water from a water main, borehole or groundwater source cannot be used in its raw form as it can potentially contain a wide range of contaminants that can affect the quality, consistency or even safety of the final product.

The successful production of high value and high quality products depends on the quality and consistency of raw materials. Since water is the most important raw material used in the petrochemical industry, it directly affects the production process. Considering the pollutants that natural water resources may contain due to the increasing population, it is only possible to ensure the quality of the raw water source with advanced technological treatment technologies. Considering the amount of water required by the facilities in the petrochemical industry; water is vital for a facility in every field. In this respect, the quality of water is almost as important as the quantity when plant efficiency is considered. The quality of raw water can vary depending on natural phenomena and man-made interactions. Therefore, the water coming into the plant must be treated before use in order to remove sludge and sediments in the raw water, dissolve suspended organic matter, adjust the pH level and disinfect the water by killing disease-causing microorganisms.
