Membrane Separation Applications

Membrane Filtration for Wastewater Treatment

The essential challenges of today are to ensure cost effective treatment and recycling processes for water and wastewater. Membrane technology solves this task by being an innovative and trendsetting technology. Today membranes are successfully used for the treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater as well as for the production of drinking and process water from surface water. Membrane technology and membrane bioreactors (MBR) are especially important in arid zones for the recovery of clean water for reuse...

Chemical Water Treatment for membrane treatments

Membrane units, in our days are widely used in the water pre-treatment preparation and are becoming one of the most important technologies in the production of high pure water. Nevertheless they often face problems with scaling and fouling and are therefore limited by frequent maintenance, downtime and high costs. Our treatment programs are specifically designed for membrane units like reverse osmosis, ultra- and nanofiltration and enable to remove or preventive control scaling and fouling. Our main target is...

Membrane filtration systems for whey

Before the innovation of membrane processing was introduced to the dairy industry, in the late 1960`s, whey was truly a waste product of cheese making. Three important events have driven whey towards further processing; increased cost of dumping whey into the environment; new technologies to separate the proteins in whey and scientific research that has uncovered the wide range of nutritional and biological properties of whey that have ultimately added value to a once wasted product.

Membrane Filtration for Chemical Industry

Membrane technology has made major progress in recent years and is nowadays the method of choice for many processes in the chemical industry, wherever substances are to be separated efficiently and gently. A prime example of this is dia-filtration, in which solutes and particles with higher molecular weights are retained while solutes with lower molecular weights are "washed" out of the process fluid.

Prefiltration for Reverse Osmosis desalination systems

AQQA is the ideal system to act as a prefiltration for Reverse Osmosis desalination systems. It is installed directly after the intake from the ocean. By taking out particles > 0,1 µm, the sensitive R.O. membranes can be protected and work much more reliable with a higher output.

Industrial and commercial water filtration for reverse osmosis plants

Reverse Osmosis or RO is a system used to produce an ultra-high quality of water with use of membrane. Reverse Osmosis plants are required in many production processes. Damage to these high quality membranes can easily be caused if no pre-filtration is in place to protect the system from high loading, this can result in extremely high costs of repairs, ranging from tens of thousands to millions, not to mention the loss of production to a company if as a result of plant failure production has to be...

Using evaporation to dewater Reverse Osmosis reject waste streams

Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology has been used for years in various industries to separate dissolved solids from water by forcing the water through a semi-permeable membrane. RO is also commonly used to purify drinking water and desalinate seawater to yield potable water. The water and other molecules with lower molecular weight (specific weight of molecules allowed to pass through is dependent on the selected membrane) pass through the micropores in the membrane, yielding a purified water stream called the...

Solutions for the wastewater sector

Conventional wastewater treatment systems are focused on efficient removal of polluting components. This is commonly done through aeration and separation of formed biomass from the cleaned water. After treatment the water would be discharged onto surface waters or subsoil irrigation. Introduction of polishing steps after these treatment systems opened up the possibilities to reuse water for either irrigation or even potable water. DMT Environmental Technology also implements these solutions with its MemBioRex...
