NF Membranes

DESCRIPTION:

Membranes for nanofiltration

Nanofiltration (NF) retains multivalent ions (e.g., Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, SO₄²⁻) and many organic molecules while showing moderate retention of monovalent salts. Typical uses include water softening, sulfate cut and color/NOM or micropollutant reduction.

STANDARD SPECIFICATION:

– Membrane: thin‑film composite polyamide
– Element sizes: 4″×40″ and 8″×40″; also 2.5″/1.8″ on request
– Typical rejection: MgSO₄ ≥ 97–99 %, hardness ≥ 90–98 %; NaCl ~ 20–60 % (type‑dependent)
– Design flux (20 °C): 20–40 LMH; operating pressure 6–25 bar
– pH operation 2–11 (CIP to 12); max temp 45 °C; free chlorine < 0.1 mg/L INDUSTRY USE CASES:

– Pesticide/micropollutant and color removal (NOM)
– Water softening and sulfate removal
– Partial desalination with improved energy profile vs RO

PRETREATMENT / INTEGRATION NOTES:

– Pretreatment to SDI15 ≤ 3; antiscalant selection per saturation indices
– Dechlorination to protect polyamide; define CIP windows

STANDARD SCOPE OF SUPPLY:

– NF elements and pressure vessels
– HP pump and chemical dosing (antiscalant/SBS)
– CIP system and SOPs

INLET REQUIREMENTS:

– Pretreatment to SDI15 ≤ 3 (≤ 2 preferred)
– Dechlorinated feed (free chlorine < 0.1 mg/L) OPTIONS:

– Low-fouling or high-rejection variants
– Antiscalant dosing and CIP system

HOMOLOGATIONS / STANDARDS:

– Skids CE-marked; pressure vessels PED/ASME
