K-water is carrying out two pilot projects to overcome water shortage problem: high-recovery seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) system and reuse of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent using RO system. The main objectives of the projects are to obtain design factors and optimized operation and management (O&M) techniques of full-scale reverse osmosis systems for seawater desalination and wastewater reuse. Seawater desalination pilot plant is being operated in Sokcho, an eastern coastal city of South Korea and wastewater reuse pilot plant will be constructed in a wastewater treatment plant in Ulsan which is a famous city for the huge industrial complex. Key point of the seawater desalination project is a high recovery ratio of 60% and the wastewater reuse project focuses on the low fouling system. |
