EPS - Ultra Filters (UF) - Brochure

Ultrafiltration (UF) is a continuous filtration process used to separate emulsified oils and suspended solids from wastewater.  A porous tubular membrane allows the water (permeate) to pass while larger contaminants such as oils and colloids are retained and concentrated.  The membrane surface avoids any build -up since the high velocity of the incoming water produces a scouring effect.  Ultrafilters can provide absolute treatment to a wide variety of waste streams.
