Next-generation membranes designed for industrial processes
Rethinking industrial filtration
Conventional membrane technologies have enabled significant advances in filtration and separation. However, in demanding industrial environments, they can reach certain operational limits.
The limits of conventional membranes
Fouling & clogging
Accumulation of contaminants on the surface and within pores, leading to a progressive decline in performance.
Limited chemical resistance
Sensitivity of many conventional membranes to oils, solvents, aggressive chemicals and extreme pH conditions.
Selectivity / permeability trade-off
Improving retention can come at the expense of flow rate, and vice versa.
High energy consumption
Some separations require significant pressures, particularly in nanofiltration and reverse osmosis.
Limited lifespan
Cleaning cycles, chemical constraints and operating conditions can accelerate membrane degradation.
Concentration polarization
The accumulation of solutes near the membrane surface can reduce flux and affect separation efficiency.
Filtrapur Solution
