Microfiltration is a separation process of suspended matter or emulsified oils from liquids like water or organic solvents.
The separation is done on the basis of particle exclusion. This process does not depend on temperature particle weight. It is a process that operates at low pressure with high flows.
- UF
- Ultrafiltration works according to a selective separation using pressures going up to 10 bars. Ultrafiltration is commonly used for the separation of milk, whey and proteins. This process concentrates the solid particles and dilutes those whose molecular size is higher than 1000µm.
- NF
- Nanofiltration is selected when Reverse Osmosis and Ultrafiltration do not correspond to the MWCO threshold. Nanofiltration meets the needs of applications such as acid or soda regeneration, as well as color extraction.
- RO
- Reverse Osmosis is a very effective technique in dewatering processes, concentration/separation of substances with very low molecular weight in solution or the cleaning of waste water. This process enables the concentration of all dissolved and suspended organisms. Reverses Osmosis is mainly used for sea water desalinization.
