Membrane filtration is a technique to purify polluted water. It consists in making waste water pass - at a certain pressure - through a thin membrane made of hollow fibres or spiralling sheets of composite materials. Large quantities of water can be treated with this system. A combined use of membrane filters and under-vacuum evaporators that can reduce the concentration generated by the first system, is often employed effectively

Separation through the use of (organic and inorganic) membranes, is a technology that helps separate a solute from a solvent, by applying a higher pressure than the osmotic pressure of the solution to be treated. By identifying the pollutants we want to remove, we can work in the field of micro, ultra or nanofiltration, and use reverse osmosis membranes that virtually allow to remove all solids dissolved within the solution to be treated.
At the end of the process, we’ll obtain a permeate and a concentrate; these two streams qualitatively/quantitatively depend on the product treated, and on the type of membrane used. Excellent integration with under-vacuum evaporators.
Main applications: landfill leachate, food-processing wastewater, galvanic wastewater, food-processing water
