The success of a microfiltration step is not only due to membrane’s cut off. That is the reason why IMPROVE proposes a great choice of ceramics membranes. Some of them can be tested in several scales.
Cut off | Material | Particularity | Supplier | Surface |
0,1 µm | Alumina | GP | Pall | 0.35 m² et 4.56 m² |
0,8 µm | Alumina | GP | Pall | 0.35 m² et 4.56 m² |
1,4 µm | Alumina | GP | Pall | 0.35 m² |
50 nm | Zirconium | GP | Pall | 0.35 m² |
100 nm | Zirconium | GP | Pall | 0.35 m² |
600 nm | Silicon Carbide | – | St Gobain | 0.35 m² |
1 µm | Silicon Carbide | – | St Gobain | 0.35 m² |
With GP system the transmembrane pressure is constant all along the membrane, which increases its efficiency.
