Basin Water Resources was selected by a major international gold producer to supply a dual-train nanofiltration/reverse osmosis pilot system to evaluate various membrane performance characteristics.

Basin Water Resources (BWR) was selected by a major international gold producer to supply a dual-train nanofiltration (NF)/reverse osmosis (RO) pilot system to evaluate various membrane performance characteristics. BWR has leased and piloted similar equipment to numerous customers throughout the United States to evaluate water treatment reuse options and for front-end engineering and design (FEED) studies. The design flexibility allows the customer to see the real-world performance since the company’s systems allow for testing of multiple membranes simultaneously and at similar or different operating parameters such as flux, recovery and chemical feed rates. Coupled with BWR’s virtual control room and cloud-based data collection and analysis system, Basinwaterlogix, the company provides the client with real-time operating data, trend analysis, lab reports, service reports and KPIs for them to have full visibility on their project from anywhere in the world. BWR's approach reduces overall pilot cost, complexity and effort by leveraging the latest in water treatment equipment design and data collection and analysis. Pilot and future engineering costs are further reduced by minimizing the number of companies involved, contract negotiations, space requirements, support staff, electrical/mechanical installation, training and chemical handling.
