About Purite
- 4. 4 Water Standards • Water is one of the most important raw materials used for research & development, laboratory and production applications. • Quality of raw water drawn from the mains or local borehole supplies can be extremely variable. • Measures need to be in place to purify the water to suitable standards. • Specific water purity standards have been developed over the years. • Quality of water required is linked to application.
- 5. 5 Water Standards BS EN ISO 3696:1995 • Three standardised grades, expressed in terms of conductivity as below: Grade Microsiemens(MIN) Resistance(MIN) pH Si(ppb)max 1 0.1 10 N/A 10 2 1 1 N/A 20 3 5 0.2 5-7.5 N/A
- 6. 6 Water Standards ASTM D1193-06 (2011) • Four standardised types, expressed in terms of conductivity as below. Further graded on bacterial, Endotoxin requirement as more application specific: Type Grade Microsiemens(MIN) Resistance(MIN) pH Si(ppb)max cfu/ml max Endotoxins Eu/ml max I 0.056 18 3 I A 0.056 18 3 10/1000 0.03 I B 0.056 18 3 10/100 0.25 I C 0.056 18 3 100/10 II 1.000 1 3 II A 1.000 1 3 10/1000 0.03 II B 1.000 1 3 10/100 0.25 II C 1.000 1 3 100/10 III 0.250 4 500 III A 0.250 4 500 10/1000 0.03 III B 0.250 4 500 10/100 0.25 III C 0.250 4 500 1000/100 IV 5.000 0.2 5-8 IV A 5.000 0.2 5-8 10/1000 0.03 IV B 5.000 0.2 5-8 10/100 0.25 IV C 5 0.2 5-8 100/10 Most people refer to ASTM standards, but interpretation varies
- 7. 7 Water Standards • Other specialised standards exist for industries such as the electronics and semiconductor industry where specific metal specifications need to be met. • The healthcare industry also has its own set of standards.
- 8. 8 Applications • Type IV Non-Critical work. Water baths, autoclave and disinfector feed, environmental chambers, plant growth rooms. Type 1 production. • Type II/III General Lab use. Glassware rinsing, media preparation, pH solutions & buffers, reagent preparation. Type 1 production. • Type I Water critical applications. Clinical Analysers, HPLC, GC, AA, ICP-MS, advanced analytical techniques, Tissue Culture, Life Science, Molecular Biology. QUALITY - LINKED TO APPLICATION
- 9. 9 Technology-RO • Latest RO technology can improve water quality and lab productivity. • RO is a powerful method of producing purified water for a wide range of laboratory duties. • Modern units will pre-filter and de-chlorinate the raw water feed, then pass through semi permeable polymer RO membranes. • The permeate passes through the membrane which removes up to 98% of the minerals and salts, plus virtually all colloids, microorganisms, endotoxins and organic macromolecules.
- 10. 10 Technology Deionisation • Deionisation can be used purify water. • It uses a mixture of resins to remove anionic and cationic contaminants from the feedwater, exchanging with active hydrogen and hydroxyl ions, which combine to form water molecules. • Deionisation can be used alone to produce Grade 1 (>10 MΩ) water, but is uneconomic at high TDS levels or for high usage (>100l/day). • Generally the most efficient treatment is a combination of RO and Deionisation.
- 11. 11 Technology Laboratory systems • Specification should begin with consideration of the standardised grades of water purity. • Having established the level of purity required, then the volume needed should be assessed. • This is followed by the decision to install a centralised or stand-alone unit. • Choice is dictated by overall costs and the operational demands of each option. • Purite has developed a range of stand-alone units designed to meet the needs of the modern laboratory
- 12. 12 Quality Considerations? QUALITY - LINKED TO APPLICATION • RO WATER (5 – 35 µs) – Feed for Humidifiers, Autoclaves, Lab ring mains. • DI WATER (1 – 10 MΩ) – Glassware rinsing, Reagent make- up, Media prep, General Lab use. • HPLC GRADE WATER (>10 MΩ) – HPLC, Ion Chromatography, Atomic Adsorption, Analyser feed. • ULTRA PURE WATER – (18.2 MΩ) – Tissue Culture, Life Science, Molecular Biology.
