Red Desert water cleaning technology for water reuse

Technology That Meets Your Requirements

Red Desert utilizes a technology developed by Clean Runner and proven to be both reliable and effective. It is a unique proprietary process, called PetroCleanse, which employs a combination of technologies to effectively and economically clean produced water from oil and natural gas drilling operations. This technology offers a low cost, non-polluting, chemical-free method for recovering 90% of the water for re-use.

The facility is fully automated, computer controlled, and can be remotely accessed. Our technologies can be configured to meet any customer requirement or regulatory standard, and will clean vast quantities of water for multiple re-use applications. These include direct land (irrigation), agricultural flora and fauna, and/or potable uses. Below you will find descriptions of technologies utilized, and can view the full process by selecting the Read More buttons.

Benefits Of PetroCleanse

  • Year-Round Operating Capability
  • Environmentally Sustainable Process
  • Lower Treatment & Disposal Cost
  • Cleans Water to Both DEQ & EPA Standards

Clarifiers

This is the initial treatment of the incoming production water. Multiple three-phase clarifiers separate the oil (which floats), and solids (which sink) from the water. The remaining water moves on in the water treatment process.

Holding Tanks

These mixing and holding tanks are for removing emulsions from the water. The tank farm buffers the clean runner water system for peak performance. This includes separate storage for recovered oils from the clarifiers.

Reverse Osmosis Units

The Reverse Osmosis (RO) unit uses Activated carbon filters to remove any residual organics. The system was originally designed for sea water desalinization, and completes the water reclamation process by removing the remaining Total Dissolved Solids (Salts) out of the water.
