Ultrafiltration (UF) Membranes: High-Performance Liquid Separation

Ultrafiltration (UF) is a pressure-driven membrane process used to separate dissolved and suspended solids from liquids. This robust and versatile technology offers a highly effective solution for a wide range of applications across various industries. Our UF membranes provide superior performance, reliability, and efficiency in removing particles, colloids, and macromolecules, while allowing the passage of smaller molecules and salts.

Key Features & Benefits:

• High Flux Rates: Experience significantly faster processing times and increased throughput compared to other membrane filtration techniques, leading to improved productivity and cost-effectiveness.
• Superior Separation: Effectively removes particles ranging from 0.01 to 0.1 microns, including bacteria, viruses (depending on membrane pore size), proteins, and other suspended solids. Achieve precise fractionation based on molecular weight cut-off (MWCO).
• Enhanced Water Clarity: Obtain crystal-clear permeate with reduced turbidity and improved overall water quality, ideal for applications demanding high purity.
• Reduced Fouling: Our advanced membrane materials and design minimize fouling, extending membrane lifespan and reducing operational costs associated with cleaning and replacement.
• Scalable Solutions: Available in a variety of configurations, including spiral wound, hollow fiber, and flat sheet modules, to accommodate various flow rates and processing volumes. Custom solutions are available upon request.
• Low Energy Consumption: UF requires lower operating pressures compared to other pressure-driven membrane processes, leading to reduced energy consumption and a smaller environmental footprint.
• Wide Range of Applications: Suitable for a broad spectrum of applications, including:
  • Water Treatment: Removal of turbidity, bacteria, and other contaminants from drinking water, wastewater, and surface water.
  • Biopharmaceutical Processing: Purification of biological products, such as proteins, antibodies, and vaccines.
  • Food & Beverage Industry: Clarification of juices, wine, and other beverages; concentration of milk and other dairy products.
  • Industrial Process Streams: Separation and purification of various industrial liquids, including chemical process streams and effluent treatment.
