Wash Water Treatment in NDT Film Processing

SAMA Water Products develops solutions for water quality management in photographic wash water systems used in industrial inspection environments. Our products are designed to support stable operation of film processing equipment where reliable wash water conditions are essential.

Our treatment products and dosing equipment are primarily used in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) film processing systems, where photographic film is used to inspect critical components and structures in demanding industrial environments.

NDT Film Processing Systems

In film-based Non-Destructive Testing, photographic processing systems are used to develop inspection films. Wash water systems form an essential part of this process, helping remove residual chemicals from the film after development and fixation.

Over time, wash water environments may create conditions where micro-organisms develop. This can result in biological residues such as algae or biofilm (bioslime) forming inside tanks, pumps, hoses and circulation systems.

These deposits may influence wash water quality and increase the need for cleaning and maintenance of processing equipment.

Biological Growth in Wash Water Systems

In photographic wash water systems used in NDT film processing, biological growth may develop gradually. Micro-organisms can form deposits inside tanks, hoses and pumps where water is continuously present. Common issues that may occur include:

  • biofilm or bioslime formation on internal surfaces
  • algae growth in wash water tanks
  • contamination of circulation systems and pumps
  • increased cleaning and maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning routines and appropriate water treatment can help manage these conditions and support stable operation of film processing equipment.

Controlled Dosing in Wash Water Systems

In industrial wash water systems, controlled dosing of treatment products can help maintain stable conditions over time.

Precision dosing equipment allows treatment products to be applied at adjustable intervals and volumes. This enables operators to adapt dosing to system size, machine workload and maintenance schedules.

SAMA Water Products develops dosing solutions designed to support reliable application of treatment products in technical water systems.
