Ultrafiltration (UF)

Efficient and effective water treatment generally requires a combination of different methods and technologies. This combination depends on the intended purpose of the cleaned water (e.g. drinking water, industrial process water for power plants, etc.) as well as on the quality and degree of contamination of the original water. Thanks to its unique advantages, ultrafiltration can play a central role in this mix of physical, chemical and mechanical processing methods.

Advantages of Ultrafiltration

>

The deployment of ultrafiltration offers significant advantages over conventional water treatment methods:

Removal of germs, bacteria, viruses and all types of suspended solids
No addition of chemicals
The quality of the treated water remains the same regardless of the degree of contamination of the original water
Simple and safe to operate and manage

Ultrafiltration is characterized by sustainably cost-effective operating concepts. These can also have knock-on benefits for other water treatment technologies when ultrafiltration is used in combination with these methods in order to exploit its advantages.
