In the Coca Cola batching plants of the
FEMSA company in Buenos Aires, Argentina, à SIGNET
water and waste water treatment devices are being implemented.
The FEMSA company, which is domiciled in Mexico and
the actual licensor for Coca Cola batching in the city
of Buenos Aires, Argentina, wants to renovate and expand
the water treatment systems at their batching plants.
At the present time, such renovation work has been
completed at two of the main plants: at FEMSA San Justo
and FEMSA Alcorta. These two projects were carried out
by the Lockwood company, one of the leading firms in
Argentina in the business of water and waste water treatment.
In both cases, FEMSA relied on devices from +GF+ SIGNET,
especially the magnetic inductive flow meters, for installation
of their new reverse osmosis process.
FEMSA plant in San Justo
Various SIGNET measurement systems are used in
the new reverse osmosis units. |
The new water
treatment system at the FEMSA plant in San Justo
consists of two reverse osmosis units, which each
have an input capacity of 25Êm3/hour and
an output capacity of 17.5 m3/hour, adding up
to an overall capacity of 50 m3/hour and an overall
penetration water capacity of 35 m3/ hour.
A total of eight +GF+ SIGNET flow meters were
used in this application. Added to these were
two conductivity measurement systems with a measurement
sensor of the type +GF+ SIGNET 2820 and a conductivity
monitor, +GF+ SIGNET 5800, for measurement of
the conductivity of the penetration water at the
outlet of both reverse osmosis units. |
FEMSA plant in Alcorta
The FEMSA plant
in Alcorta is the largest plant owned by the company
in Buenos Aires. The new water treatment system
consists of a reverse osmosis unit with an input
capacity of 65Êm3/hour and an output capacity
of 50Êm3/hour. In this plant, nine +GF+
SIGNET flow meters and again a conductivity measurement
system were installed. The pH value measurement
system used here consists of an electrode, type
+GF+ SIGNET 2714, a pre-amplifier, type +GF+ SIGNET
2720, and a pH monitor, type +GF+ SIGNET 5700
ProPointª, for measurement of the pH value
of the untreated water at the beginning of the
reverse osmosis process.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank
the engineer, Daniel E. Musciano, from our representative
Bruno Schillig SRL in Buenos Aires, Argentina,
for this valuable input. |
