Ultrafiltration

Ultrafiltration is used for the separation of suspended solids, bacteria, virus and other solutes of high molecular weight. Ultrafiltration uses membranes with pore sizes ranging between 1 and 100nm. Contaminants of high molecular weight are filtered out by the membrane while water and low molecular weight solutes pass through the membrane.

Applications well served by Ultrafiltration

• Wastewater treatment
• Food and beverage manufacturing
• Chemical and Pharmaceutical manufacturing
• Removal of pathogens from milk
• Cheese manufacturing
• Printing/Ink removal
• Fruit juice concentration and clarification
