In collaboration with Nalco, Logisticon Water

Treatment has extended the water treatment

system at Yara in Le Havre (France). The existing

ultrafiltration installation, commissioned in 2016

after collaboration between Nalco and Logisticon,

has been further expanded. In parallel to that, an

installation that further treats the surface water

with flocculation and a 3-layer filtration has been

constructed. This results in water of sufficient

quality to serve as a direct water supply to the new

and existing reverse osmosis installations.

The extension includes six filters with a total

capacity of 200 m³/h with a supplementary double

pass RO in insulated containers. The first pass

of reverse osmosis produces 100 m³/h and the

second pass produces 90 m³/h. In the coming

years, the installation will be controlled remotely

via a secure communication link.

Logisticon has added complete mobile

storage and dosing systems for all

kinds of chemicals to its rental fleet.

These large CHEMDOSE10 storage

tanks can be used as alternative

storage during maintenance activities,

replacement or rejection of old

chemical storage installations, or

because temporary measures are

necessary for, for example, the

neutralisation of wastewater, storage

of coagulants, flocculants, etc.

The mobile installations are designed

and built according to the Regeling

Erkenning Installateurs Tankinstallaties

and have BRL K 903-08 certification. 

Mobile chemical storage and dosing

installations are fitted with: 

Robust steel coated frame with

lifting eyes

Double walled HDPE storage tank

(10 m³)

Hydrobusiness and DAF Trucks EindhovenSince 2002, HydroBusiness has been supplying cooling and process water to DAF

Trucks in Eindhoven for the manufacture of trucks. The purification system is fed using

surface water from the canal in Eindhoven and consists of a fish screen, micro-sieve and an

ultrafiltration installation. As a back-up there is a drinking water connection is available.

The old ultrafiltration membranes were over 12 years old and due for replacement.

On behalf of HydroBusiness, Logisticon Water Treatment reconditioned and expanded

the entire system so it is now ready to supply cooling and process water to DAF Trucks

for the next decade.

The reconditioning included, among other things:

The installation of new Pentair Xiga 46 membranes, increasing the surface to 1800 m²

and also the capacity to 180 m³/h. This also involved the replacement of the rinsing

pump and the entire control unit.

Renewal of two chemical dosing systems with storage to comply to the new

BRL-K903/8 regulations. As stated elsewhere in this LogistiContour no.18, Logisticon

is BRL certified for this.

Hygienically designed reverse osmosis unit

Applications 

Hygienically and aseptic designed ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse

osmosis installations from Logisticon Water Treatment in various forms are

exceptionally well suited for the production of bottled water, soft drinks, fruit

juice, syrups and brewing water. In addition, the installations can be made

suitable for the dairy and food industry, with various separation techniques for

specific types of process water and, for example, for re-use of condensate.

In close collaboration with Wairtec,

Logisticon Water Treatment supplied

a hygienically designed and construc-

ted softener and reverse osmosis unit

with a net capacity of 12 m³/h to a fruit

juice processing company. 

In addition to a double softener

and a reverse osmosis installation,

the installation also has recircula-

tion capabilities, UV disinfection, and

specially requested backflow preven-

tion devices.

Special attention was paid to the

choice of materials and instruments.

The piping and pressure vessels are

made entirely of SS316L (Ra«0.8) with

tri-clamp connections.

Instrumentation was carried out using

Varivent®-N connections and hygienic

Kieselmann valves and check valves

were also fitted as interspaced flanges

to allow easy dismantling and mainte-

nance.

Modularly constructed mobile filter installationLogisticon Water Treatment has developed a new mobile water treatment container.

This installation is fitted with an automatically backwashed sand filter and two filters

for, for example, activated carbon or ion exchange. The water treatment installation

with a capacity of approximately 20 m³/h is fully automated and can be controlled

at distance via a secure Internet connection.

A major advantage of the PLC control

system is its capability of connecting

to other installations. This allows the

mobile treatment system to be used

as, among other things, a groundwater

treatment device for soil remediation, as

(temporary) post-purification for biological

water treatment, but also as pre-treatment for a UF or RO installation. Multiple

installations have now been constructed and delivered.

With the Global Standard developed by the Water Footprint Network, water consumption can be compared across the entire supply chain and policy can be set for sustainable water use.

Process water for VynovaAs part of a long-term contract to supply process water using pre-treated water from

the Juliana Canal, Nalco is working in collaboration with Logisticon to supply process

water to Vynova in Beek/Geleen, The Netherlands.

Vynova, formerly Ineos ChlorVinyls, used to buy demineralised water from EDEA on the

Chemelot site in Geleen. However, the current quality requirement for the purchased

water is <20 µS/cm. This paved the way for the purchasing of cheaper process water

through the Nalco-Logisticon consortium.

All of the installations designed and constructed by Logisticon Water Treatment are

mobile and incorporated within multiple 20ft and 40ft containers. The full installation

consists of 2 ultrafiltration and 2 reverse osmosis systems. A CIP container enables the

membranes to be cleaned automatically. The installation has a capacity of 95 m³/h

and a maximum capacity of 120 m³/h. Peak levels of usage are absorbed using two

buffer tanks which allow 150 m³/h to be supplied for short periods. The entire installation

is remotely controlled and monitored over a secure internet connection.

Due to the obsolescence of the exis-

ting water treatment plant, Smink Afval-

verwerking in Amersfoort, part of the

new Renewi, contracted Logisticon

Water Treatment to construct a new

wastewater treatment system. Smink

has been involved in the collection,

processing and recycling of waste

products since 1955 and manages

a landfill site in Amersfoort, The Ne-

therlands. This landfill site produces

leachate, which has to be purified.

The new leachate wastewater treatment

system was designed for a hydraulic

capacity of 720 m³ / day. It relies on

the same technological principle as the

20-year old installation, but now uses the

latest generation of ZeeWeed ZW500D

LeapMBR Zenon membranes for an

energetically optimal design.

The new installation consists of an

equalisation tank (200 m³), a bio-

logical tank (300 m³), a permeate tank

(200 m³) and a stainless steel mem-

brane tank for the MBR modules.

The technical installation has been

fully constructed in 4 insulated con-

tainers that are connected on site.

The deployment of temporary mo-

bile water treatment equipment from

Logisticon Rental has enabled the

old treatment system to function

normally until the start-up of the newly

constructed system.

The drinking water company Oasen has officially opened a partial flow reverse osmosis (RO)

membrane installation at the Schuwacht treatment plant in Krimpen aan de Lek, The Netherlands.

Half of the groundwater intake passes through the new membrane installation and the other

half of the groundwater intake bypasses it. The two flows are then mixed in order to attain the

hardness required for drinking water. The water subsequently passes through the conventional

drinking water treatment installation.

The entire membrane installation consists of 4 parallel reverse osmosis membrane units, each

with a nominal capacity of 97 m³/hour per unit. Further, the installation has been fitted with a

membrane cleaning system.

The use of the Optiflux membrane concept allows energy savings of up to 20% to be achieved.

Furthermore, Logisticon worked together with Oasen to design a special low-pressure turbine

installation for energy recovery. It also fitted IE4 motors and installed a solar power installation

to keep the total energy consumption to an absolute minimum.

Mobile container treatment systems with GEA decanters Once again, several containers with integrated

decanters have been constructed for GEA. In a 40ft

container a UCD 305 decanter was constructed,

including coil pipe flocculators, a flotation unit,

chemical storage tanks and dosing units that are

being further developed and started up by the

customer in the UK. This unit is being used to treat

contaminated wastewater from a paint factory and

remove the sludge in solid form.

In addition, a very large GEA Nederland decanter centrifuge of the type waterMaster

CF 6000 has been integrated into a 30ft container for Servis, Service in Separation B.V.

This installation is very comprehensive, including a supply pump with a 20-80 m³/h

capacity, a PE preparing and dosing unit, a sludge removal screw and a removable roof

hatch for extensive maintenance of the centrifuge. The controls are in a separate, dry

and low-noise space. The entire system can remain on a trailer and be accessed using

retractable stairs. Due to the powerful forces being used and the extra openings for

the roof hatch, doors, sludge screw and supply and removal pipes, it was necessary to

heavily reinforce the container in several places.

Logisticon has added several Dissolved Air

Flotation (DAF) installations to its rental fleet.

The capacities of our mobile rental fleet vary

from 5 m³/h to 80 m³/h.

The installations are modularly constructed

and can be deployed rapidly. The equipment

has been put together in such a way that it is

easy to connect to other treatment compo-

nents. For example, for prior coagulation and

flocculation or subsequent sludge treatment

and polishing.

The installations can be deployed for short

periods of time as a solution to a problem or,

for example, as a temporary boost to purifi-

cation capacity or in emergencies. Medium

to long term rental is also possible.

Logisticon Water Treatment receives BRL-K903/8 certificateProject leader Gea Voorrips has received the BRL-K903/8 certificate from

Kiwa on behalf of Logisticon Water Treatment. According to the Regeling

Erkenning Installateurs Tankinstallaties (REIT), Logisticon Water Treatment

may now design, construct, supply and maintain above-ground systems

for the dosing of chemicals for, among other

things, water treatment. This certificate has

also led to the construction of various mobile

chemical storage systems with a volume of

10,000 litres. These mobile systems are now

available for rental. For a description of the

CHEMDOSE10, see elsewhere in this issue.

EN1090 certificate obtainedThere are harmonised product standards that

supplement the Construction Products Regulation

(CPR). One of these standards is the European

product standard NEN-EN 1090 which specifies that

it is legally required to acquire CE certification for,

among other things, steel construction elements that

support a permanent construction load.

A company may only draw up and issue this CE

marking if it is certified to do so by a registered (external) organisation.

To do this, among other things a production management system is

required according to FPC (Factory Production Control), including but

not limited to a welding quality system. This allows us to carry out

the entire process from design to commissioning ourselves.Logisticon

Water Treatment is now certified by Bureau Veritas for EN 1090-1 to

EXC. 2 and we are permitted to issue this CE marking.
