MEMBRAFLOW control systems GmbH services
Manufacturing Services
In order to guarantee our customers highest quality standards, we are cooperating with local leading companies in the field of plant manufacturing. Thereby we can access the most modern warehouses and production halls, as well as highly qualified personnel. We manufacture both, self-planned and customer-designed plants. Commissioning services directly at our end customers are also part of our services. A special feature thereby is the complete pre- assembly as well as the extensive functional testing of the complete systems locally at our partners, whereby we also offering conducting a factory acceptance test after the pre-assembly. After the successful functional testing, the system is dismantled into a few individual parts and delivered to our end customer afterwards. As a result, the assembly and commissioning time can be reduced to a very minimum, leading to saving costs and resources borne by the customer.
Filtration-Membrane-Technology Services
Membrane technology is a mechanical separation process utilized to separate gaseous or liquid mixtures and solutions using specialized membranes. Depending on the membrane type, it caters to various separation requirements, offering both economic and ecological benefits through physical separation. The core structure of a membrane involves a support body with a microporous surface, topped by the membrane layer that dictates filtration fineness. In a closed-loop system, the impure mixture flows over the membrane layer, which filters particles larger than its pores, allowing the purified medium to pass through. Different geometries exist for different needs, with elements available as mono or multi-channel with varying diameters, providing up to 211 channels per element in some cases. Membrane processes are classified into microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis based on particle size. Various polymeric plastics and ceramics are used as membrane materials, with ceramics often preferred for their longevity and superior mechanical and chemical properties, achieving separation limits from 1 to 1400 nanometers. Applications span environmental technology, water technology, the food and dairy industries, and bio and fine-organic chemistry. Key benefits include definable process separation limits, durable and inert membrane materials, potential chemical-free operation, low operating costs, modular and expandable construction, compact systems with minimal filling volumes, high automation levels, and scalable system capacities, ensuring rapid amortization. For unknown filtration properties, testing is available via laboratory or pilot scale units, aiding in the design of industrial filtration plants.
Planning Construction and Engineering Services
The planning and design of process engineering plants is one of our strengths. Due to our long- standing experience in various subjects, we can access to comprehensive knowledge in all related areas. By carrying out test trials on laboratory and pilot plants, customer-specific products can be tested for their filtration properties. Based on the results we are designing, planning and constructing the systems in a first step, followed by creating a concept suggestion. The results of the concept planning are again used for the detail planning. All these steps are happening in close contact with our customers. The planning and engineering services also include the clarification and definition of interfaces as well as the concept development in the field of control and automation systems. Our customers’ benefits thereby in using our knowledge and can outsource all design, construction and engineering services.
