We also provide installation and design for the convenience of our customers. Hydro Blue owns rights of UF membrane which includes reinforced Alloy PVC, PVDF and PS/PES with various structures and precision. Our products are for commercial and industrial clients only.
Hollow Fiber Ultrafiltration Membrane
It is a method that is commonly used for ultrafiltration and uses an asymmetric membrane. The membranes have the ability to be back washed which allows them to steadily maintain a high flux. Hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane is advantageous in the sense that it is in a compact form with a huge area for membrane filtration. All the modules provided by Hydro Blue are tested and passed through a number of quality checks so you don’t have to worry about anything. The hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane has the following advantages:
- High tensile strength
- Good anti-fouling properties
- Resistant to chemical degrading
- Low working pressure
- High flux
- Temperature tolerant for efficient membrane cleaning
- The pore size is very fine
- Efficiently removes all viruses and bacteria
The technology of hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane is an active way for purifying water with the help of a physical barrier filter which makes water pathogens free. The best part about this ultrafiltration is that chemicals are not used in this process. Natural materials like magnesium and calcium are not removed from the water. Billions of gallons of water are being purified every day with this process making society move towards a healthier tomorrow.
MBR membrane module
The MBR membrane module is a process which is a combination of membrane filtration and biological wastewater treatment. Environmental pollution s reduced by using microorganisms and bacteria. We use a biological treatment in which the activated sludge is parted from preserved water through an ultrafiltration membrane. The MBR process includes an activated sludge system with suspended growth that integrates a microporous hollow fiber membrane (which is flat) in modules for liquid or solid separation. The hollow fibers are mounted in a vertical order in modules and are immersed in the activated sludge tank. Application of vacuum is done for permeating manifold which then draws water inside the hollow fiber membranes from the reactor side and then taken out from the system. The point that makes this module stand out is that secondary clarifiers are not needed at all.
Kinds of MBR systems
There are 2 kinds of MBR systems which are:
- Vacuum (or gravity-driven): These structures are submerged and usually use flat sheet membrane or hollow fiber in membrane tanks or bioreactors.
- Pressure-driven: They are externally located to the bioreactor and they are an in-pipe cartridge system.
