Agriculture

Water is used in a variety of agricultural water treatment processes which require a specialised approach.

Based on a comprehensive analysis of the process, water consumption and the quality of the final product, HydroChem Group delivers a customised design for the best results with the lowest possible operating costs.

Many customers have iron filtration to treat their borehole supply. We have worked for many years removing iron from water to use on irrigation or process, from tomatoes to flower producers.

An effective iron filtration system lasts for many years with minimal maintenance, we have customers with systems over 30 years old. We fully design the right system for you following an initial water analysis.

We can provide iron filters of any size and application.

We offer expertise in the following areas:

OPTIMAL CROP DEVELOPMENT

Every crop has specific needs to enable it to deliver optimum yield. Whether using rainwater or a surface water source, the water composition must be correct for the specific application.

Our specialists are fully experienced in what you require, and understand the challenges you face.

HydroChem have extensive knowledge of legislation and regulations, and can work with you to deliver technology shaped around your target performance.

REDUCING WASTEWATER

With the right water conditions, such as low salt (sodium) concentrations, water can be reused more often. This ensures optimal use of fertilisers, resulting in less water wastage, benefiting the environment with a reduction in surface water pesticide levels.

RESOURCE EFFICIENCY

Corrosion and scale deposits can lead to significant energy loss, for example in heating systems, such as boilers and CHP.

Through the water softening process, deposits are significantly reduced, equipment operates more efficiently and lasts longer, resulting in savings in time and capital expenditure.

REDUCING OPERATING COSTS

A well-designed water treatment system reduces operating costs. Our experts work with you to specify and consider whole project expenditure and operational requirements.

HydroChem delivers the latest design and technologies to ensure our systems are cost-effective, sustainable, and reliable.

Depending on the water quality requirements, several techniques can be applied in the agriculture sector. Contact us now for a consultation.
