Clean drinking water Iran

Drinking water installation for the city of Birjand, Iran

Drinking water, Birjand

Tauw is helping design and construct an installation that provides the Iranian city of Birjand with clean drinking water. The drinking water contains too much chromium(VI) and the hardness of the water is too high. Tauw has examined whether the so-called pellet water softening technique is usable for the removal of chromium(VI) from drinking water.

The tests have shown that chromium levels are insufficiently reduced, but that the reduction of hardness works well. Chromium(VI) will be removed through the use of osmosis membranes.
