Water Treatment

Water Resources, Sanitation, and Public Health Engineering

Access to clean, fresh water is fundamental to life and well-being. It is therefore of fundamental importance that water meant for drinking and process water be treated to acceptable water quality standards, through various water filtration and purification technologies/systems to help remove salt, chlorine, bacteria, and other contaminants as well as odours, unpleasant tastes, and hardness from water. Standard domestic and industrial water treatment strategies incorporate filtration, softening, desalination, reverse osmosis, nano-filtration, and ion-particle exchange.

Domestic and industrial water treatment offers several benefits such as;

  • Protects public health. Water treatment helps protect public health by removing contaminants that can cause illness,
  • Improves product quality. Water treatment helps improve product quality by removing contaminants that affect the taste, appearance, and safety of products,
  • Improves equipment efficiency. Water treatment helps improve the efficiency of equipment by removing contaminants that can cause scaling, corrosion, and fouling. This leads to reduced energy consumption, extended equipment lifespan, and improved product quality,
  • Reduces maintenance costs. Water treatment helps reduce maintenance costs by preventing damage to equipment and infrastructure. This can lead to significant savings over time,
  • Increases energy efficiency. Water treatment helps improve energy efficiency by removing contaminants that interfere with heat transfer and other processes. This leads to reduced energy consumption and lower operating costs,
  • Compliance with industry regulations. Some industries are subject to strict regulations regarding water quality. Industrial water treatment helps businesses to comply with these regulations and avoid costly fines.

We offer a number of water treatment technologies, ranging from simple to high-end treatment, filtration, and purification systems, suited for homes, institutions, and bottling plants. Our modern, high-quality technologies range from bulk treatment for communal water points, as well as filtration systems for homes. These include but not limited to;

  • Mobile water quality testing laboratories (vehicle labs),
  • Portable water quality testing kits (emergency water test kits),
  • Ceramic filters,
  • Compact water treatment units,
  • Digital arsenic detection kits,
  • Microbiological water testing kits,
  • Multi parameter chemical test kits,
  • Pocket conductivity meters,
  • Ultra filtration systems,
  • Bag filter housings, FRP membrane housings, brine tanks, FRP pressure tanks, and ion exchange resins,
  • Reverse osmosis systems,
  • Desalination systems,
  • Reverse osmosis filters and filter cartridges,
  • TDS meters, pH meters, chlorine testers, conductivity meters, turbidity meters, etc,
  • Drinking water quality monitoring stations (online monitoring stations),
  • Containerized RO systems,
  • Point of use solar ultraviolet (UV) disinfection systems,
  • Water treatment options for borehole and piped water systems i.e. iron removal, manganese removal, and heavy metals (hardness), through options as air stripping (degasification), water softening, slow and rapid sand filters (bio sand filters), etc,
  • Process water equipment and machinery for bottling plants i.e. injection moulding machines (water bottle moulding) and 3 in 1 bottling plants with automatic rinsing, filling, and capping,
  • Ultrapure automatic water vending machines (water ATMs), both coin and card swipe operated.

At SANKOFA, we understand that water streams vary significantly, and as such, our tailored approach begins with a comprehensive characterisation phase. By understanding the unique impurities and end-use requirements of each treated water source, we determine the optimal combination of processes and technologies to include in the delivery scope. With our extensive range of options, we provide cost-effective solutions for each client. Our expertise extends beyond cutting-edge water filtration and purification technologies, encompassing pre-treatment and disinfection to ensure seamless operation. From initial pre-treatment to final water storage, our designs are thorough and effective. Our team of experienced water treatment specialists guides you with system design and product selection needed to efficiently treat your raw or process water. Our experts provide professional consultation and support at every step of the process of the water treatment system design and implementation.
