Designing MF/UF Systems for Low Maintenance: 10 Year’s Experience at Two North Dakota Installations
There is a tendency to to design ultrafiltration systems with as high a flux as possible to minimize capital costs without being too aggressive and making operation difficult. Another approach […]
Wastewater vs Drinking Water Cleaning
During this presentation I will be showing some of the issues that I have encountered using wastewater in a membrane plant. I will show some of the differences between a […]
Two Decades of Successful Low-Pressure Membrane Filtration of Surface Water in Tennessee – Lessons Learned
Two Decades of successful operation of the DRUC low-pressure membrane facility have demonstrated that membrane filtration is clearly a normal, not novel process that can be cost effective and extremely […]
Functionalized Nanoporous Ceramic Membranes Towards Low Cost Electrodialysis
Electrodialysis (ED) stack manufacturers play second fiddle to reverse osmosis because of high capital costs even though their products generate 90% less waste brine and require 80% less energy to […]
Expanding UF/MF Plants – Should you Cut the Cord with Your Existing Manufacturer?
This paper is the first part of a three-part session entitled “Guidance for Existing MF/UF Facilities: When is membrane replacement recommended, what are the viable options, can costs be reduced […]
Strategies and Options for Replacement of MF/UF Membranes and Upgrading Plant Performance
Microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) as applied on drinking water and wastewater has evolved significantly over the past 30 years. While research existed for some time, the technology started gaining […]
