Coca Cola Amatil Nanofiltration Plant, SA

Coca Cola water treatment plant

Capacity: 2880 m3/day

In 1998, Coca-Cola Amatil chose to replace it's ageing Mixed Bed Deioniser System with a Nanofiltration System.

The plant treats bore water, or a mixture of bore and mains water, to produce potable water which meets the Coca-Cola standard for bottling. The plant is fully automatic with instrumentation for measurement and control of all vital parameters.

The system operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, automatically switching to recirculation during low demand periods to minimise the chance of bacterial growth.

Technologies:

  • Chlorine dosing system
  • Pressure sand filter units
  • Carbon filter units (steam sterilisable)
  • UV unit
  • Nanofiltration unit with antiscalant dosing, cartridge filters, and high pressure pumps
