Central sterile service department (CSSD) water treatment systems play a crucial role in various areas such as healthcare facilities, laboratories, and healthcare centers. These systems ensure the high-quality and sterile purification of water, facilitating the safe disinfection of medical and surgical instruments, as well as laboratory materials. RIVAMED, with its expertise in water treatment systems and technological superiority, addresses these needs through its sterilization devices produced under the RİVAMED brand.
What are Central Sterile Supply Department Water Treatment Systems?
Central sterilization water treatment systems encompass a complex process chain involving various filtration and disinfection steps. These systems first purify water from contaminants present in the sources, followed by removing microorganisms, toxins, and other pollutants. As a result, high-quality sterile water is obtained. This water is then used for essential applications like cleaning surgical instruments, washing laboratory materials, and disinfecting medical devices.
With years of experience and engineering competency in medical water treatment systems, we hold a pioneering position in the industry. Leveraging this experience, our company, under the Rivamed brand, is breaking new ground with self-manufactured sterilization devices. Rivamed sterilization water treatment systems offer superior performance and reliability by employing cutting-edge technology and high-quality materials.
- Highly Efficient Disinfection: Rivamed sterilization water treatment devices effectively eliminate microorganisms, ensuring a high level of disinfection. This guarantees compliance with medical standards and requirements.
- Smart Control Systems: The devices are equipped with smart control systems, facilitating operation and maintenance processes while enhancing energy efficiency.
- Compact Design: Rivamed sterilization units promote space-saving and easy installation due to their modern and compact designs. We design and manufacture systems tailored to capacity and water quality requirements. After analyzing the water quality of the area to be used, the appropriate units are selected based on this analysis and the desired capacity.
- Environmentally Friendly: Designed to promote water conservation and featuring environmentally friendly operating modes, Rivamed sterilization devices operate in line with sustainability principles. Central sterilization water treatment systems play a vital role in the healthcare and industrial sectors. Riva Engineering’s sterilization water treatment devices manufactured under the Rivamed brand combine high quality, reliability, and technology, contributing significantly to this field. These devices are used in a wide range of applications, from healthcare facilities to industrial plants, establishing the foundation for effective sterilization and maximizing safety and hygiene.
Central sterilization water treatment systems use a complex sequence of filtration, disinfection, and sterilization steps to purify water to a high quality and sterile state. These systems effectively remove microorganisms, toxins, and other pollutants present in the water. Here are how these systems work and the units used:
For efficient sterilization and operation of sterilization and washing devices, the feed water values are adjusted to suitability by integrating RIVAMED sterilization water treatment systems with reverse osmosis, pre-treatment, and post-treatment units.
Pre-Treatment Units:
The water treatment process typically starts with the removal of large particles, sand, and mud from the water sources. This stage is achieved using mechanical filters or pre-filters. These units ensure the removal of basic pollutants from the water before progressing to further stages.
- Mechanical Filters: Water is purified from large particles, sand, and mud.
- Pre-Filters: Water is prepared for more advanced stages by removing finer particles.
Activated Carbon Filters:
Activated carbon filters eliminate organic materials such as color, odor, and taste from the water. These filters effectively absorb pollutants like chlorine and volatile organic compounds, enhancing water quality.
Ion Exchange Units:
Ion exchange units are used to reduce the hardness of water (calcium and magnesium ions). Hard water can lead to mineral accumulation on devices and medical equipment. Ion exchange units soften water by removing hardness ions.
Reverse Osmosis (RO) Systems:
Reverse osmosis involves passing water through a membrane under high pressure, removing salts, mineral substances, and microorganisms. RO systems provide an effective way to produce high-quality sterile water. In this stage, a significant portion of microorganisms is eliminated.
Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection:
UV light prevents the proliferation of microorganisms in water by affecting their DNA. UV disinfection units are used as an effective method for water sterilization, reducing the need for chemical usage.
Final Filtration:
Finally, fine filtration steps are applied to remove micro-particles from the water. This stage ensures the water is extremely pure and sterile.
Disinfection Tanks:
Chemical disinfection methods are employed to achieve extra sterilization of the water.
Storage Tanks:
Designed to store treated water and make it readily available when needed.
