Who is DXV Slide 1 40 years of running water treatment Saigon Long Beach Anaheim
3
Alter contaminants or remove them Slide 2 Physical removal can be expensive Chemical Biological Physical
4
Like your house’s air filter… Slide 3 …water treatment membranes clog up
5
Washable filters save money at home… Slide 4 …but require a little more work
6
Cleaning frequency … Slide 5 … fewer is better 1 to 2 times per year
7
Water treatment membranes get washed Slide 6 …10,000 to 25,000 times per year “Membrane Fouling”
