Pentair X-Flow to provide ultrafiltration systems for UAE plant

Pentair X-Flow has been chosen to supply its Seaflex ultrafiltration (UF) membranes to the new Al Zawrah seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) plant in Ajman, the UAE.

Pentair X-Flow’s UF technology will be implemented by the Federal Electricity and Water Authority (FEWA), the utility provider for Ajman, Ras Al Khaima, Umm Al Quwain and Fujairah in the UAE.

The UF system will provide pre-treatment for the new desalination plant that will produce desalinated water for potable purposes and allow for high reverse osmosis fluxes.

The selection of Pentair X-Flow was made by the Spanish firm Cadagua on behalf of a consortium, which is made up of Cadagua and Ajman company Essa Engineering & Marine Services.

The consortium will be responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction of the project, which is scheduled to be built and commissioned this year.
