Patrick from TSG came out, inspected the RO plant and tested the water discharging out of each of the membranes. He doesn't feel that it is a membrane issue. The sea water in our area seems to result in high PH when processed through an RO system. This has evidently been an issue from day one. There needs to be a sulphuric acid injection pump added in order to offset this. The high PH is most likely causing some of our rust issues and needs to be resolved. The other issue is our membranes are starting to get dirty. The membranes apparently have never been cleaned, so I would recommend we have them out to do the first cleaning. He would also like to put our system back online to allow remote monitoring, which I also think is a good idea. I will forward the estimate as soon as he gets it to me.

Upon arrival, the plant was not running and in standby. A walk through of the plant area showed that overall, the SWRO plant has been very well maintained. There were no signs of water or oil leaks, the piping was free from rust, and the entire SWRO plant area was clean. Smiley and I went over the daily data collection. In December 2012, the feed pressure of the SWRO plant was consistently 820-830 psi. In January 2013, the daily plant data clearly shows a rise in feed water pressure, and DP across the membranes indicating EFTA_R1_00454716 EFTA01971762
