TriSep SBUF flat sheet membranes are being discontinued by the manufacturer. Limited quantities of these flat sheet membranes is available at the moment, for more information or if you need assistance finding a suitable replacement product, please contact Sterlitech at [email protected]
Sterlitech is launching Synder Filtration’s new "SM" flat sheet membrane. This is a PES based ultrafiltration membrane commonly used for specialty protein separation, skim milk protein concentrate/isolate production and beverage clarification. SM membrane conforms to 3-A, FDA, and USDA sanitary standards and provides good resistance to pH and temperature as well as a high resistance to fouling.
Membrane fouling, defined as the accumulation of particles and organic matter at the surface or in the pores of membranes occurs during membrane filtration. Membrane fouling results in membrane performance loss, i.e. lower rejection values, lower permeate flux and higher pressure drop, which translates into higher operational cost. The extent of fouling depends on the feed quality, operating conditions, membrane characteristics and module design.
Did you know that the potable water on board the International Space Station (ISS) is up to 80% recycled from astronauts’ sweat, urine and other reclaimed wastewater sources?
