11111111W II The XIGATM Concept and Operation Manual <br /> %W -I-IX-FLOW <br /> %W During the CEB it is important that the first backwash without the chemicals will remove most of the foulant prior to <br /> the backwash with added chemicals In this way the chemicals are exposed only on the -hard to remove-foulant. It <br /> is also important that the whole vessel is filled with chemicals, in the correct amount and with the correct soaking <br /> time. After soaking it is important to flush all the chemicals out with a backwash and, as mentioned in the <br /> backwash procedure, the TMP during CEB may not exceed 3 bar with a flux rate of 250-300 I/M2h. <br /> %. The chemicals to be used in the CEB depend on the type of foulant to be expected from the feed water e.g <br /> HCL/H2O2 (pH=2/200 ppm) in a sandfilter backwash water from a ground water source application containing <br /> %W mainly ironhydroxide and manganeseoxide. Or e.g. NaOCI (100 ppm) in a pre-treated surface water application. <br /> %' Chemical Cleaning <br /> If despite all preventative measurements (Backwash and Chemically Enhanced Backwash) the TMP rises above 1 <br /> bar then additional Chemical Cleaning with different chemicals is recommended Also for disinfectants it is <br /> #4W recommended that e.g. once every month the system is cleaned with a different disinfectant as used in the CEB. <br /> .� The most effective chemicals to be used in this additional Chemical Cleaning depend on the type of foulant in the <br /> feed water and the chemicals used in the standard CEB <br /> Example 1. The chemical used in CEB is HCL/H2O2 and the foulant is mainly biological growth. A chemical <br /> cleaning via the backwash using 500 ppm NaOCI can be performed in 3-4 sequences with a soaking time of 15 <br /> ` minutes each time. <br /> Example 2i The chemical used in CEB is NaOCI and the foulant is mainly metal salts. An overnight soaking in HCI <br /> %W (pH=2) or 1% citric acid could be considered <br /> s <br /> C B <br /> rtration <br /> Ame <br /> E \ <br /> m 1 <br /> r time <br /> l� <br /> L <br /> CAPF-XIGA-0143 <br />
