Membrane ultra-filtration unit i-UF series

waterautomatic

The i-UF represents the natural evolution of UF filtration, where the integration of the screening and membrane filtration in a single vessel strengthens the footprint, pressure rating and robustness benefits of vessel contained UF. The i-UF vessel design and manufacturing in FRP/GRP allows to install the system outdoors. FRP has proven to have a perfect corrosion resistance behavior. This enables the EPC / End User to take advantage of the following main benefits: Decreases significantly • PROJECT´S CAPEX • PROJECT´S LEAD TIME • PLANT´S FOOTPRINT • MEMBRANE REPLACEMENT COSTS • SOLID WASTE DURING REPLACEMENT • WATER and POWER CONSUMPTION i-UF systems combine the screening and UF stages in a single vessel. Feed water flows across the strainer in an in/out direction, reaching the membrane chamber. The vessel internals are designed for out/in UF configuration and can include air scouring. Both stages can be cleaned at the same time or individually. The UF is BWed or CEBed as in conventional systems and the screen is cleaned using a combination of BW and brushing. The screen tube (screen, brush and propeller) can be extracted and replaced easily. Similarly to a conventional cartridge filter, the cartridges can be accessed from the top flange and individually tested and replaced.
