Wastewater Membranes Resources

  1. Mobile Home Park Installs Modular MBR System To Save Valuable Space 5/18/2020

    Bay Meadows is a year-round RV and mobile home park located along the shores of Lake Ontario. The facility had been reliant on subsurface treatment, however current regulatory requirements eliminated the option of continuing with that approach. In addition to high bedrock, the lack of available area due to design flow values meant a more sophisticated sewage treatment solution would be necessary.

  2. Low-Fouling RO Tech Keeps Replacement Costs Down At Wastewater Reuse Plants 4/17/2020

    By using Toray's low-fouling polyamide composite membranes, the WTPs at the AMATA estates operated the RO systems for more than five years before requiring replacement of the RO elements. This low rate of replacement has considerably helped the end-user save operational and capital costs and is noted as one of the most successful wastewater reuse plants in Thailand.

  3. Cost-Effective Sludge Thickening Processor Using MBR Membrane Bioreactor 4/15/2020

    The Toray MBR modules helped a local utility achieve their goals of conserving water and meeting the Regional Water Quality Control Board's effluent standards (Title 22), so the reclaimed water can be used for irrigation and other reuse applications. 

  4. When To Replace Your RO Membrane 1/19/2020

    On the surface, it might seem that knowing when to replace the membrane elements in a reverse osmosis (RO) system would be simple. In attempting to keep it simple, many companies will use one or more of the following guidelines for replacing their membrane.

  5. High-Flux Membrane Filtration For Oil And Water Separation 12/6/2019

    Environmental regulations and water scarcity have created a need for economical water treatments that increase reuse. This paper will review the new PPG membrane that has a unique composite single-layer microstructure that provides high-flux, excellent separation capabilities and exceptional durability to improve the filtration and recovery of industrial wastewater.

  6. High-Flux Polymeric Membrane For Industrial Water Separation 12/6/2019

    Water is essential to numerous industries such as chemical manufacturing, automotive production, oil and gas refinery and power generation, yet the increasing scarcity of this precious resource makes its recovery from these activities more critical than ever.

  7. Pros And Cons Of Different Types Of Ultrafiltration Technology Configurations 11/15/2019

    Ultrafiltration systems can be engineered and designed in several possible combinations based on the application and source water quality. There are different membrane materials, membrane shapes, flow types, and configurations.

  8. Ultrafiltration vs. Microfiltration 11/8/2019

    Which process should you choose for your application?

  9. Common Problems Of Ultrafiltration System Operations 10/31/2019

    One facet of technological advancement is attempting to mitigate the more glaring issues that consistently crop up due to the nature of a system process. Of course, even with decades of improvement nothing is infallible. In this article, we will discuss the common issues that can occur using UF filtration systems.

  10. How To Choose A UF Water Treatment System For Your Facility 10/23/2019

    Ultrafiltration (UF) water treatment systems have many possible combinations between the types of membrane configurations, flow patterns, aeration, and submergence. Each design consideration for a UF system has its own benefits that would work for a particular industrial/commercial application, and disadvantages that would work against it.
