Membrane Technology

Membrane Technology is becoming the one-stop solution to most process water requirements.

With the large array of different membranes and membrane manufacturers there is a solution to almost all water sources and quality required.

Improvements in membrane technologies have reduced CAPEX  and OPEX costs, whilst increasing water yields and rejection rates.

Hydra-Clear provide the following technologies: 

• Microfiltration is the lowest micron rated membrane with a <100nm pore size. This is good for rejection of bacteria, oil sand solids but does not remove dissolved materials.
• Clarification of fruit juices, wines and beer
• Cold disinfection of pharmaceuticals and beverages 
• Pretreatment for RO to remove suspended solids 
• Oil and water separation 

• Ultrafiltration (or UF) is a <10nm pore size membrane which is excellent for removal of viruses and bacteria. This property makes it excellent for:
• Pharmaceutical Production
• Electronic Component Manufacture
• Pre-Treatment for RO
• Effluent Treatment

• Nanonfiltration (or NF) is used for rejection of multi-valent ions but allows certain mono ions through. NF pore size is <1nm which makes it an excellent choice for complete virus rejection
• Drinking Water Production
• Pharmaceutical Production 

• Reverse Osmosis is the most commonly known membrane technology on the market. Widely used throughout commercial and industrial sites. A pore size of <0.5nm makes this ideal for rejection of all metals, virus and bacteria.
• Pure Water Production
• Drinking Water Production
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
• Industrial and Chemical Manufacturing

Hydra-Clear have a standard line of Reverse Osmosis Units. Contact us for more information
