What is a SCM Mini?
The SCM Mini is a new generation of water treatment system that can treat ground or surface water containing high dissolved salts to produce clean drinkable water that meets WHO standards.
This high recovery system does not use any chemicals, consumes very low power and has the lowest operating cost for treating water when compared to any system in the market today.
The SCM Mini uses a purification technology based on the principles of Capacitive Deionization. Capacitive Deionization is a technology for removing salinity from water. This innovative technology is used to desalinate water without using resin or membrane filters. It does not require chemicals to treat water and uses very low power to separate salts in water.
System Highlights
- Low Wastage (10-15% maximum wastage)
- Low Power Consumption – can run using alternate energy sources
- No Chemical Usage – does not use any chemicals in its
operation
- Reduces Salts and Metals by almost 80% - making it safe to consume
- Lowest Operating Costs
- Simple to Operate – does not require any specialized skills to operate
- Compact in size – making it possible to deploy almost anywhere
Applications of the SCM Mini
“The Cost of producing treated water with an SCM Mini works to 0.0004 USD - 0.0006 USD per liter making it the most economical de-centralized, point-of-entry based water treatment system in the market today”
The low power usage and low maintenance costs results in a very low operating cost for treating water.
Due to this reason, the SCM Mini can be used as a very effective Point of Entry based water treatment system where the entire premises gets treated water.
Some of the fields of applications where SCM Mini makes the most economic impact are:
Apartments & Villas
As a single treatment plant for an entire Apartment building or community the SCM Mini:
- ensures all taps in a house gets treated water
- improved life of appliances - washing machines, solar heaters, geysers ..
- reduced lime scales on expensive sanitary fittings
- Increased health benefits - loss of hair or skin irritation
Hospitals, Hotels and Colleges
Improves the water footprint - ensuring low wastage and better re-use of water
Rural Drinking Water Initiatives
The Economics of water production, low wastage of water, Simplicity of use and Ease of maintenance makes the SCM Mini an ideal choice for decentralized drinking water solution that can be adopted in villages.
