Water & Wastewater Applications

Produced Water

Turn to KMS for reliable produced water.

Water is a critical component in oil and gas processing, and trace contaminants in the water supply can adversely impact vital processes. Robust KMS membranes systems and solutions are an ideal component in produced water treatment, and provide a low cost, efficient method of ensuring safe, reliable water.

In the United States, about ten times more water than oil is generated from a typical well, making the separation, treatment, and disposal of produced water one of the most costly and environmentally challenging dilemmas facing the oil and gas industry. Despite the complexity, we offer effective solutions that can be put in place today, and continue to research new technology for future gains.
  • Phosphorus Removal Using PURON™ MBR
    The phosphorous removal capabilities of MBR technology create a compelling rationale for municipal wastewater treatment plants to consider submerged membrane bioreactor technology, in addition to other key benefits such as improved COD and BOD reduction, greater treatment capacity, and a smaller environmental footprint.

    Retrofitting Existing MBR Systems
    Many wastewater treatment plant operators have opted to replace first-generation MBR modules with next-generation modules, primarily to gain the benefits of improved membrane performance via energy efficiency and reduced membrane fouling.

  • São Paulo, Brazil
    Our challenge was to ensure a steady supply of clean drinking water to 350,000 people living in São Paulo. The answer came in the form of Aquapolo Ambiental, the largest wastewater reuse project in the southern hemisphere, and the fifth largest of its kind in the world. Our groundbreaking (and cost-effective) solution not only adheres to strict regulations, but has the potential to reach 600,000 residents.
