Distinctive Economic Levers

  • Substantial annual savings on chemicals
  • Automated stand-alone operations requiring minimal operator intervention
  • No complex sludge or toxic waste management
  • Very high processing efficiency (minimal backwash water disposal)
  • No premature membrane wear from intense or repeated chemical cleanings
  • Reduction in the amount of labour required to operate the plant
  • Smaller footprint than conventional coagulation processes
  • Significant reduction in the need for chlorine, as disinfection is complete
  • No alteration in the pH of treated water and thus no remineralisation required

Significant savings in combined operating and capital costs

In the municipal sector, where operating costs are financed through tax revenue, it is especially important to consider all costs associated with water treatment technology. And Dagua has nothing to fear from comparison.

The following table compares unit costs for DaguaFlo-UMF technology with those generally associated with membrane filtration and nanofiltration in two types of installations. In terms of both operating costs alone and combined operating and capital costs, the Dagua solution is by far the most cost-effective choice.
Moreover, Dagua is also competitive in providing turnkey projects that include its treatment technology and all peripheral infrastructure (e.g., building, reservoir, power generator). Table 2 compares the Dagua solution with those of three other competitors for a project with a design flow of 2 000/ m3 per day.

All told, the technological breakthrough that Dagua has accomplished in chemical-free water treatment enables community decision makers to balance their financial capacities with both regulatory requirements for drinking water and the growing support for sustainable development.
20

years of experience

The Aguapods containerized drinking water solutions are based on the Dagua Technology that has been developed over 20 years. Dagua is a manufacturer of mid to large scale drinking water plants.

AguaPods are Highly efficient, automated and safe

Using the DaguaFlo solution not only streamlines plant operations by eliminating the need for chemical products and sludge management, but continuously monitors drinking water quality and plant operations as well. Regardless of variations in the quality of your raw water, you can always count on a reliable supply of high-quality drinking water, with only 60 minutes of operator attention per day.

For additional ease of operation, a telemetric link (modem or Internet) enables you to monitor and manage plant operations from a remote location. As well, the plant makes process adjustments in response to fluctuations in raw water quality and performs regular system cleanings automatically.
