ULTRAFILTRATION PLANT - Technology & Best Practices

Why we picked it

Course Description Ultrafiltration (UF) and microfiltration (MF) are pressure-driven membrane separation processes used to separate macromolecules, colloids, microorganisms, and solid particles from fluids such as water.  Ultrafiltration is an excellent technology for desalination plant pretreatment (such as reverse osmosis), wastewater reclamation, and for producing potable water. The technology uses a UF or MF membrane barrier to exclude particles 0.02 to 0.05 microns (that include bacteria, viruses, and colloids), meeting increasingly stringent water-quality standards, and providing a stable, reliable, and consistent water quality to both potable-grade and a variety of industrial water treatment processes. When used as a pretreatment to reverse osmosis (RO), UF helps reduce fouling of the RO membranes, that could lead to lower chemical cleaning frequency and consequently, lower operating costs and downtime.
