Clean Water To Rehabilitation Centre For The Disabled War Wounded

We assembled and supplied industrial reverse osmosis system for pure drinking water from Maroochydore, Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Qld, Australia to the rehabilitation center for the disable war wounded at the Senapura camp in the NC province of Sri Lanka [known to have the highest incidence of renal and dental problems in Sri Lanka]. This initiative was driven by Mr. Ajit Abeyewardene and funded by the Rotary Club of Jindalee whose charitable donation enabled pure drinking water to be provided to 600 inhabitants who really need this. The brief to our reverse osmosis purified water specialists were to supply a robust system that would produce constant levels of pure water given borehole feed water with a TDS reading of 753ppm at a rate of 11,500 litres per day.  The system has performed well since February 2011 and the post RO TDS readings of the drinking water average 57ppm on feed water of 753ppm and fluoride which was at 1.3mg/l before the reverse osmosis was reduced to WHO standard of .6mg/l. Thanks to our RO specialist Will Vidler and congratulations to Ajit for the recent district citation he received from the Rotary Club of Jindalee for his work in Sri Lanka.
