Pure water by ultrapure water treatment

For work processes in the medical, research and industrial sectors, ultrapure water is one of the most valuable and important raw materials of all. It is often used as process water, rinsing water, boiler feed water or cooling water, as well as in laboratories for reliable treatment for the central laboratory water supply. In medical technology, on the other hand, pure and ultrapure water is used for instrument preparation, e.g. in doctor's offices, laboratories or central sterile goods supply departments (CSSD), and therefore requires consistently high water quality.

But how is ultrapure water produced?

Ultrapure water is produced using a variety of water treatment processes, which can also be combined with one another. In the production of ultrapure water, ion exchangers, electrodeionization, the reverse osmosis process or even ultrapure water resins and ultrapure water filters are used.

The particularly pure water produced in this way (also called deionized water) is the pure chemical compound H₂O without any foreign substances. The lower the water's contamination with foreign substances, the lower its conductivity. Due to the low conductivity, ultrapure water should not be confused with distilled or demineralized water.

When it comes to ultrapure water treatment, we rely on modern treatment stages. Starting with filtration and ion exchange, through reverse osmosis  to electrodeionization. Matching storage and distribution concepts are part of our customer-specific solutions. We offer you a complete package in which all components are coordinated with one another.

The best thing about it: Hartmann GmbH produces the optimal ultrapure water treatment system according to your very specific quality requirements, which also meets your individual needs in terms of size and performance.
