Seawater Intake Filtration
Application
KD International provides a complete range of filtration solutions for seawater intake applications in offshore and industrial operations. Seawater is commonly used for water injection, water flooding, pipeline flushing, cooling systems, process water, ballast water, and as a pre-filtration stage for desalination plants. However, contaminants such as algae, sand, silt, and other particulates can cause clogging, equipment damage, and reduced operational efficiency. Proper filtration ensures uninterrupted flow and protects downstream systems.
Problem
Unfiltered seawater introduces various contaminants that lead to operational inefficiencies and maintenance challenges. Key issues include:
- Clogging of Pipelines & Equipment – Reduced efficiency in water injection and cooling systems
- Increased Maintenance Costs – Frequent cleaning and repairs due to sediment buildup
- Damage to Sensitive Equipment – Pumps, heat exchangers, and membranes affected by debris
- Operational Downtime – Interruptions caused by blockages and fouling of critical systems
Without effective filtration, seawater intake systems suffer from frequent disruptions, higher operational costs, and reduced equipment lifespan.
Solution
KD International designs and manufactures high-performance automatic filtration systems that meet the stringent demands of offshore and industrial applications. Our advanced filtration solutions provide continuous operation with fully automated cleaning capabilities. Our filtration portfolio includes:
- Automatic Seawater Filtration Systems – Self-cleaning filters for uninterrupted performance
- Mobile Seawater Filtration Units – Portable systems for flexible offshore use
- Custom-Designed Seawater Filters – Engineered solutions for specialized applications
- High-Capacity Filtration Systems – Designed for large flow rates and high sediment loads
- Micron-Rated Filtration Options – Available in ranges from 10 to 1000 microns
With KD International’s tailored filtration solutions, operators achieve cleaner seawater intake, extended equipment life, reduced maintenance costs, and enhanced system reliability.
