Ultra-Filtration (UF)
DESCRIPTION

RULTRAFILTRATIONUltrafiltration (UF) is a membrane separation technology that separates components from process streams by retaining target compounds and allowing passage of the remaining process solution through membrane pores of a specific submicron size, typically in the range of 0.0001 to 0.1 micron. Standard membranes used in Exergy’s UF systems are manufactured from basic plastic polymers using proprietary formulations and processing steps to engineer the pore sizes.


FEATURES

     ▪ High quality pre-tested membranes
     ▪ Exacting standards to ensure proper membrane size
     ▪ Spiral winding of separators using special fabrication
       techniques
     ▪ Quality tested using both salt and dye solutions
     ▪ pH range from 0-13
     ▪ Permeate capacity from 60 to 2,220 I/h (16 to 587 gph)


APPLICATIONS

Exergy’s UF systems provide superior quality and performance for separation applications.
Typical applications for ultrafiltration include:
     ▪ Oil/water separation
     ▪ Water purification
     ▪ COD reduction
     ▪ Recovery of specialty chemicals
     ▪ Hazardous waste remediation
