Reverse Osmosis RO Operator

To ensure effective startup and shutdown of the RO plant equipment in accordance with the standard operating procedures and work instructions. Responsible for complete RO plant operations.

• Operate and monitor the Ultrafiltration & Reverse Osmosis Plant to produce optimum quality of permeate water as per the design / requirement through dedicated HMI / SCADA systems. Maintain the feed water availability for running RO plant along with the RO product / permeate tanks capacity to accommodate the product & production shall be pre-planned as per the requirement.
• Maintain and operate the treatment plant systems with required chemical treatment process. Conduct chemical analysis using portable meter for cross verification of installed chemical dosing controllers.
• Monitor and Inspect the equipment of the RO plant such as UF
  - Feed / High Pressure / CIP / RC/MC Pumps, associated Electrical panels, instrumentation & Valves including pipe headers, storage tanks, chemical treatment equipment & Controls. Perform the verification of MC/RC cycle during RO process.
• Ensure and keep record for the adequate supply of chemicals, consumables and spares related to RO plant. Coordinate with third party (or) approved chemical treatment vendor for periodical analysis & chemical dosing rate adjustments.
• Ensure appropriate usage and storage of water treatment chemicals at site by following appropriate HSE requirements.
• Coordinate with plant operators to ensure flawless supply of water as per the demand.
