Ultrafiltration (UF) uses a semipermeable membrane to remove contaminants during the water treatment process. Water is pushed through a membrane where particles, bacteria, and viruses are removed. The water that moved through is called permeate.
Ultrafiltration (UF) systems use semi-permeable membranes to separate clean water and low molecular weight compounds from suspended solids, bacteria, proteins, and other contaminants. Operating at pressures between 30-100 PSI, UF membranes provide excellent chemical and temperature resistance, making them well-suited for demanding applications.
Membrane Bioreactors (MBRs) are a direct application of UF technology, combining biological treatment with membrane filtration in a compact, high-efficiency sytem.
In conventional treatment systems, clarifiers and UF can be used together. Clarifiers remove bulk solids through gravity settling, while UF membranes polish the effluent by capturing fine particles and microorganisms.
Ultrafiltration offers a highly efficient solution for removing contaminants such as suspended solids, bacteria, and viruses from water. Its process requires fewer chemicals, making it a more sustainable option with lower operating costs. With low energy consumption and a compact, space-saving design, ultrafiltration systems are ideal for facilities with limited footprint. Most importantly, they consistently deliver high-quality water output, ensuring reliable performance for a wide range of applications.
