Scaling and Other Biological Build up Pollute your RO Plant Water Eventually you have to clean your RO plant one day. Reverse Osmosis plant exporters recommend cleaning of RO plant when the plant shows symptoms of fouling or sometimes it is a scheduled routine maintenance. The cleaning of RO plant due to fouling will vary by site. It is suggested by manufacturers to perform scheduled maintenance routine once every three months to twelve months. If you have to clean the plant more than once a month, you should know the way to justify future capital expenditure.

Sometimes experts recommend people to use RO permeate water to reduce RO cleaning frequency. This RO permeate water helps in flushing pollutants from the system. Soaking the RO elements, when the system is at standby mode, with permeate water can help in removing scale and precipitates. This will reduce the frequency of cleaning of the system with chemicals. Different types of foulants that contaminate cooling tower are     

Calcium carbonate scale Sulfate scale of calcium, strontium, or barium Metal oxides of manganese, iron, aluminum, etc. Silica scale Organic material of natural origin or manmade origin Colloidal deposits
