Process modelling plays a crucial role in the design and operation of water and wastewater treatment facilities and complements laboratory testing and piloting techniques.

Our modelling team uses a range of advanced tools, including membrane and ion exchange design software, with a strong focus on identifying fouling issues and developing solutions for complex treatment challenges. These tools enable us to optimise membrane module design, module configurations, and tank geometries for maximum efficiency.

Our Services Include:

• Engineering and chemical modelling of reverse osmosis (RO) and ion exchange (IX) systems
• Membrane bioreactor (MBR) design for predicting organic loading, optimising reactor geometry, and assessing solids and hydraulic retention times
• Design and optimisation of desalination processes for both brackish and seawater applications, with a focus on capital efficiency and energy consumption
• Development of plant resilience models to stress-test treatment systems and predict potential operational failures
