The filtration system utilizes high-velocity fluid cross flow across the face of a ceramic membrane.
The Membrane filter has over 1800 channels and is designed to channel out permeates while allowing the entire filter face to be utilized.
The system is designed for 3 separate membranes - 0.2 microns, 0.01 microns or 0.005 microns.
The Membrane is durable, can handle a broad PH Range (from 2-13) and is immune to chlorine attack.
Its compact design is engineered for thermal shock resistance, and the system is back flushable, preventing unwanted fluids from re-entering the system.
The filtration process leads to dischargeable water.
Typical results from waste stream to permeate: Oil/Grease 136 ppm to 1 ppm, Pb.79 to.09, Ni 0.15 to 0.01, Cu 1.49 to 0.36 and Zn 5.9 to 0.37.
Ideal applications include use as an intermediate filter or pre-filter for more expensive RO membranes, reduction of oily bilge wastes, reduction of process wastes or reduction of wash water wastes.
