China Ultrafiltration Membrane System for Drinking Water Purification | Leading Suppliers & Factory

Ultrafiltration (UF) is an advanced membrane separation technology that effectively purifies and separates various solutions. This innovative ultrafiltration membrane system acts as a reliable solution separation device, utilizing specialized ultrafiltration membrane filaments as the filtration medium and leveraging the pressure difference across the membrane as the driving force. It selectively allows only solvents in the solution such as water molecules, inorganic salts, and small organic molecules to pass through, while effectively retaining larger molecular substances, including suspended particles, colloids, proteins, and microorganisms. This capability makes ultrafiltration an ideal choice for achieving high purification and separation standards.

    Products Description

    Ultrafiltration is a kind of membrane separation technology between nanofiltration and microfiltration. Ultrafiltration uses a pressure-active membrane to trap colloids, particles and relatively high molecular weight substances in water under the action of external driving force (pressure), while water molecules and small solute particles pass through the membrane separation process. The material with molecular weight of 500-500000 Dalton can be intercepted by screening through micropores on the membrane surface. When the treated water passes through the membrane surface at a certain flow rate with the help of external pressure, water molecules and solutes with molecular weight less than 300-500 pass through the membrane, and particles and macromolecules larger than the membrane pores are intercepted due to the screening effect, so that the water is purified. That is to say, when the water passes through the ultrafiltration membrane, most of the colloidal silicon contained in the water can be removed, and a large amount of organic matter can be removed, so as to achieve the purpose of purification, separation and concentration of the stock solution.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: What is ultrafiltration membrane technology?

    Ultrafiltration is a membrane separation technology positioned between nanofiltration and microfiltration. It utilizes a pressure-active membrane driven by external force to trap colloids, particles, and high molecular weight substances (typically 500-500,000 Daltons) while allowing water molecules and smaller solute particles to pass through.

    Q: Does the ultrafiltration process consume a lot of energy?

    No. The separation process does not involve phase changes and uses low-pressure pumps as the driving force, which results in minimal energy consumption.

    Q: What are the standard operating temperature and pressure limits?

    The system operates under an inlet water temperature range of 10-60°C and an operating pressure range of 0.11-0.6 MPa.

    Q: Can ultrafiltration be used for heat-sensitive substances?

    Yes, because the separation process can occur at room temperature, it is highly suitable for processing heat-sensitive substances without degrading them.

    Q: What feed water specifications are required for ultrafiltration?

    The required inlet water parameters include a pH range of 2-11, water turbidity of less than 10 NTU, inlet TSS of less than 20 mg/L, and inlet COD (Gr method) of less than 30 mg/L (O₂).

    Q: What are the primary applications of ultrafiltration systems?

    Ultrafiltration is widely used in water treatment (drinking water purification, sewage treatment, desalination pretreatment), the food industry (juice concentration, whey protein separation, wine clarification), the pharmaceutical industry (purification of proteins, enzymes, vaccines), and the chemical industry.
