Case Study: Carlsberg Brewery, Israel Project: Carlsberg Brewery Location: Ashkelon, Israel Flow Rate: 50 m 3 /hour Application: Brewery Technology used: Brackish Water Desalina tion Date of Installa tion: 2010 Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis Background: RWL Water designed, manufactured, delivered and commissioned a complete brackish water reverse osmosis system with a capacity of 50 m 3 /hour of produced water. The pre-assembled, skid-mounted system was supplied “ready to use” to enable fast and simple on-site installation and commissioning. The unit is supplied with a central control system for easy operation. The system is designed to be expanded to 100 m 3 /hour. Quality Parameters: Conductivity < 20 Micro Siemens/cm Chlorides (CI) < 10 mg/l RWL Water has more than 90 years of combined experience building highly successful water, wastewater, and reuse treatment solutions for diverse industries and municipalities around the world.

It is also an ongoing concern within the manufacturing process. To address this challenge, Carlsberg, the fifth largest brewery group in the world, selected RWL Water to install brackish water reverse osmosis units for the removal of residual salts, organics and bacteria from tap water. • Pre-filtration: multimedia filters with automatic back wash remove large particles • Active carbon filters with automatic backwash for removal of residual oxidants and organics • Chemical dosing: anti-scalant prevents scale build-up on the membranes • Five micron cartridge filtration: removes residual solids, colloids, and organic material • Reverse osmosis desalination: high-rejection brackish water reverse osmosis membranes remove dissolved materials from the feed water • Bacterial filtration of 0.45 microns • Cleaning In Place (CIP) system • HMI control system System Description: Carlsberrg photo used with permission.
