What is ISO 23070 about?
ISO 23070 discusses water reuse in urban areas. ISO 23070 provides guidelines for the planning and design of Reverse Osmosis (RO) treatment systems of municipal wastewater. ISO 23070 applies to practitioners and authorities who intend to implement principles and decisions on RO treatment of municipal wastewater safely, safely, and sustainably. ISO 23070 addresses RO treatment systems of municipal wastewater in their entirety and applies to any RO treatment system component.
ISO 23070 provides:
- Standard terms and definitions
- A description of the system components of an RO treatment system of municipal wastewater
- Design principles of an RO treatment system of municipal wastewater
- Statements on the feed water quality and technical requirements of an RO treatment system
- Guidance for operation and maintenance of an RO treatment system
- Specific aspects for consideration and emergency response
Note: Design parameters and regulatory values of an RO treatment system of municipal wastewater are out of the scope of ISO 23070.
Who is ISO 23070 for?
ISO 23070 on water reuse in urban areas is useful for:
- Local government authorities
- Municipal bodies
- Water supply department
- Water treatment plants
Why should you use ISO 23070?
RO is a water purification technology that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove ions and dissolved organic micropollutants from feed water. RO has emerged as an important option for municipal wastewater reclamation to meet the increasing demand for high quality reclaimed water.
ISO 23070 guides you through the step-by-step process of planning, set-up, and operations for RO treatment systems. ISO 23070 informs you about the operating conditions and maintenance systems to keep the RO treatment systems in optimum condition. In case of failure of the system which would diminish the water quality ISO 23070 sets up a response plan to resolve it efficiently. ISO 23070 also helps you to dispose of harmful RO concentrate in a safe manner.
ISO 23070 ensures that RO water treatment systems are efficiently integrated into your municipal wastewater treatment system.
