# Industrial Specification: Water Treatment Module

## 1. Technical Definition
A modular subsystem that conditions feedwater to meet quality standards for industrial steam generation.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-6.0 MPa (5-60 bar) at 15-90°C**. Failure boundary: **Membrane rupture at 7.2 MPa (72 bar) differential pressure or 120°C feedwater temperature**, Mechanism: **Polyamide membrane polymer chain degradation via hydrolysis at elevated temperatures (&gt;95°C) and mechanical failure from transmembrane pressure exceeding yield strength (σ_y=45 MPa for polyamide)**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| f | Friction Factor | Engineering Constant |
| L | Pipe Length | Engineering Constant |
| v | Velocity | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Calcium sulfate scaling from feedwater hardness &gt;500 ppm as CaCO₃ | 8 | Reverse osmosis membrane flux decline below 10 L/m²·h | Antiscalant injection system with polyacrylic acid dosing at 3-5 mg/L |
| Chlorine residual &gt;0.1 ppm in feedwater | 8 | Polyamide membrane oxidation causing salt rejection drop below 95% | Sodium bisulfite dechlorination system with ORP control at &lt;200 mV |

- **Caution**: 

### Q: What industries use this water treatment module?
**A**: This module is designed for machinery and equipment manufacturing, power generation, chemical processing, and any industry requiring high-purity feedwater for steam generation systems.

### Q: How does the multi-media filter improve water quality?
**A**: The multi-media filter removes suspended solids, sediment, and turbidity through layered filtration media, protecting downstream components like RO membranes and ion exchange vessels from fouling and damage.

### Q: What maintenance is required for the chemical dosing system?
**A**: Regular maintenance includes checking chemical levels, calibrating dosing pumps, inspecting injection points for clogging, and verifying pH/conductivity sensors to ensure precise treatment and prevent scaling or corrosion.
