ON OUR RADAR WATER & WASTEWATER ASIA | MAY/JUNE 2021 DUPONT’S B-FREE PRE- TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY for reverse osmosis installations DuPont has launched a new B-Free pre-treatment technology that can be used to eliminate the effects of biofouling in reverse osmosis (RO) systems, which, in turn, reduce operation costs and improve plant uptime and reliability. Biofouling is one of the most common and severe issues in the operation of a RO system. If unchecked, it might cause operational issues such as frequent interruption, damage to the membranes, intense chemical and energy use, and regular cleaning-inplace (CIP) of the RO. The DuPont B-Free solution consists of a vessel-based media technology that offers a sustainable solution. It is based on B-Free pre-treatment technology ability to create an “instant and sustained” biostatic environment for the downstream RO operations without the need for chemicals and resilient to upstream upsets. The solution is designed for operators facing issues on biofouling and are looking for designing, building and operating RO systems at an optimised cost of water and sustainability footprint. According to DuPont, the B-Free technology enables a reduction of CIP frequency by up to 75%, and may double the RO membranes and cartridge filters lifetime. Furthermore, the B-Free customers will be able to achieve a low-touch and stable plant operation with up to 50% lower operations downtime required, the company added. Nanette Hermsen, global marketing and strategy director for DuPont Water Solutions, said: “B-Free pre-treatment is a breakthrough technology that effectively eliminates biofouling, and enables a significant improvement in plant reliability. As a result, this new technology will provide RO plant operators the ability to eliminate this troublesome and costly occurrence in RO systems.” DuPont B-Free pre-treatment technology is now available globally. It is one of the several innovations DuPont has introduced to help decrease the economic and environmental cost of water treatment to help combat water scarcity, and is aligned with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. “With this new technology, DuPont continues demonstrating innovation leadership and commitment to solve customer water challenges,” Gary Gu, global innovation and technology leader at DuPont Water Solutions, concluded. 57
