Filtration with Inside-to-Out Ultrafiltration Membranes of Wastewater Containing Powdered Actgivated Carbon
This study presents and compares results obtained with inside-to-out polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes operated on three different wastewater streams in two locations. The first stream tested originated from a wastewater containing […]
Meiden’s CFM, A Decade of Ceramic Flatsheet Membrane Experience
Meiden commercialized our ceramic flatsheet membrane (CFM) a decade ago. We will highlight the progress of our journey with CFM. CFM is now in over one hundred installations treating over […]
Silicon Carbide Membrane in Municipal Water & Wastewater Applications
The application of silicon carbide (SiC) membranes in municipal wastewater applications has been growing rapidly over the past couple of years. With numerous key performance and operational advantages, SiC membranes […]
Treating Challenging Wastewaters with Ceramic Membranes
While polymeric membranes are used extensively for treating domestic and industrial wastewaters, ceramic membranes have some unique characteristics that make them uniquely suitable for processing challenging waters. Their biggest advantage […]
Success with Plant performance changes
In 2015, Parker Water and Sanitation District (PWSD) commissioned the Rueter-Hess Water Purification Facility (RHWPF) which is a ceramic membrane facility with Actiflo™ Turbo and Actiflo™ Carb pre-treatment processes with […]
Effectiveness of Ceramic Ultrafiltration for SWRO Pre-Treatment
Desalination is becoming vital for securing a strategic and sustainable source of water around the world, and membrane-based seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination is a popular desalination technology. An effective […]
Lessons Learned During Four Years of Operation of a Ceramic Membrane System for Drinking Water
The drinking water source for many municipalities is a lake or reservoir that is at a much higher elevation than the treatment plant, and the water must first be stored […]
Ceramic Membrane Basics and a Specific Application Treating Stillage from Bioethanol Production
Atech is manufacturer of ceramic membrane, which provides unique advantages over polymeric membranes, such as greater mechanical strength and higher chemical and thermal resistance. The two main membrane types – […]
