Early-AOC-DES - Assimilable Organic Carbon Test
Not all organic compounds present in water support microbial growth. Hence, it is important to be able to quantitatively measure the levels of biodegradable (or assimilable, utilizable) organic matter. Various chemical parameters such as total or dissolved organic carbon (TOC, DOC) proved inadequate for this purpose.
The Early-AOC-DES test provides early warning of potential bacterial regrowth and biofouling build up. It is specially designed to provide the means to measure in near real-time the levels of readily available organic carbon in sea water. Acquiring this vital information would enable the desalination plant personnel to take timely preventative action to avoid bacterial regrowth, optimally organize its pre-RO treatment plan and backwash, save energy, and preserve the integrity of expensive membranes.
