5 Units of 500LPH Reverse Osmosis Plants for DR Congo Mining
background
Mining operations in remote DR Congo face a big challenge: getting reliable, safe drinking water. Local mining well water often has high total dissolved solids (TDS) — so high it fails basic drinking standards. To fix this, Dongguan Haiyuan Water Treatment Co., Ltd. just delivered 5 units of 500LPH reverse osmosis plants to a top DR Congo mining firm. Built specifically for mining sites, these plants clean high-TDS well water efficiently, giving on-site workers safe, drinkable water right away.
Customized Reverse Osmosis Plants: Targeting Mining Well Water with TDS ≤2000ppm
Mining well water in DR Congo usually has TDS levels up to 2000ppm — way higher than the WHO’s direct drinking limit of 50ppm. Our 500LPH reverse osmosis plants are built to handle this exact water quality: their core job is cutting TDS from 2000ppm down to 20ppm. That meets both global drinking standards and the mining company’s on-site needs.
Each reverse osmosis plant uses a full, science-backed process to clean raw well water thoroughly:
- Reverse Osmosis Plant Pretreatment System: It has a feed water pump, sand filter, carbon filter, and water softener. First, the sand filter removes dirt and small solids. Then, the carbon filter soaks up organic gunk and bad smells. Finally, the water softener strips out calcium and magnesium ions (which cause hardness). This stops scaling on the plant’s key parts, so it runs steadily for years.
- Reverse Osmosis Plant Precision Filtration & RO Core: Before water hits the RO unit, a high-precision cartridge filter catches tiny (≥1μm) particles. This protects the RO membranes from damage. Those membranes (housed in tough stainless steel cases) have a 99.5% desalination rate — they quickly separate dissolved salts, heavy metals, and other harmful stuff from the water.
- Reverse Osmosis Plant Auxiliary Support: A special brine tank collects leftover concentrated water (from the RO process). You can either dispose of this safely or reuse it, which cuts environmental harm. Plus, tools like TDS meters, pressure gauges, and flow meters track the plant’s performance in real time. This keeps water quality consistent and the process stable.


Fully Automatic Reverse Osmosis Plants: Low-Cost Operation for Remote Mining Sites
Remote mining areas in DR Congo often face limitations such as a shortage of professional technical personnel and harsh working conditions. Our 500LPH reverse osmosis plants are designed with “ease of operation” as a core principle, featuring fully automatic functionality that significantly reduces manual intervention:
- One-Button Startup for Reverse Osmosis Plant: Each reverse osmosis plant is equipped with an intuitive control panel. With a single button press, the entire purification process—from pretreatment to RO filtration and treated water storage—initiates seamlessly. On-site staff can operate the reverse osmosis plant without specialized training, lowering the barrier to use.
- Intelligent Protection of Reverse Osmosis Plant: Dual liquid level float switches are installed in both the raw water tank and treated water tank. When the raw water level is too low, the reverse osmosis plant automatically shuts down to prevent pump dry running; when the treated water tank is full, it pauses operation to avoid overflow. This intelligent start/stop mechanism not only guarantees continuous, stable water production but also extends the service life of the reverse osmosis plant’s components.
- Low Maintenance for Reverse Osmosis Plant: The reverse osmosis plant’s key components—including filters and RO membranes—are selected for durability and long service life. Clear maintenance indicators on the control panel remind staff of routine upkeep (such as filter replacement), which is simple and fast. This design reduces long-term operation and maintenance costs for the mining company.

Compact & Reliable Reverse Osmosis Plants: Adapted to DR Congo’s Mining Environments
Beyond great performance and features, our 500LPH reverse osmosis plants are small and compact. That means they fit easily in tight spaces — like the temporary workshops or container setups common at mining sites. They also run on a 380V 50Hz 3-phase power supply: this matches DR Congo’s electrical standards perfectly, so they work steadily even when the power grid fluctuates.
As a pro water treatment provider, Dongguan Haiyuan Water Treatment Co., Ltd. designs custom reverse osmosis plants and systems for industries worldwide — including mining, manufacturing, and agriculture. This DR Congo mining delivery shows we can solve regional water quality problems. It also reaffirms our promise: we’ll give customers safe, efficient, and affordable reverse osmosis plant solutions, no matter where they are.
