Membrane Systems
Membrane Systems are mechanical pressure driven processes that separate contaminants in waste streams from water. At the heart of every system is a semi-permeable microporous membrane acting as a positive physical barrier that performs the separation.
Membrane pore sizes can be chosen to separate large molecules such as oils, colloidal materials and suspended solids from water. The pore size can also be selected to separate low molecular weight solutes such as dissolved solids and salts from water. A specific membrane is selected for each project, to achieve maximum results.
Advantages of Membrane systems over other Wastewater systems include:
- Low cost per gallon for treatment
- Water (and sometimes process chemical) is returned to plant for reuse
- Greatly reduced volume for hauling
- Easy to operate and maintain
- Little or no chemical costs for treatment
