Sterlitech is launching new flat sheet membranes from Microdyn Nadir: NP010 and NP030. Both NF membranes have a Polyethersulfone (PES) active layer and Polyethylene/Polypropylene (PE/PP) support layer. NP010 and NP030 are chemically resistant and can be used at high temperatures, which makes them suitable for applications such as acid/caustic preparation, and for the metal and chemical industry.

Sterlitech is excited to announce the availability of small spiral wound membrane elements. At about 1.8” diameter and 12” in length, 1812 spiral wound elements are perfect for scaling up from flat sheets or as a more complete test before pilot scaling. 1812 elements are also ideal for small-scale production, feasibility studies, and product or process development. Operable up to 600 psi, Sterlitech offers SS316 Housing, which is a universal design compatible with the 1812 elements commercially available here.
Sterlitech currently offers commercially available 1812 spiral wound membrane elements from GE, Nanostone, Sydner, and TriSep in a wide range of MWCO, membrane material and surface properties. To browse our complete selection of 1812 spiral wound elements or to place an order with us, click here.

First announced this past spring, the Botanical Extraction section of our website is now up and running! This section houses everything you need to make a complete, basic vacuum filtration system for herbal/botanical extracts including vacuum filter holders, membrane filters, trap bottles or flasks, and vacuum pumps. You can also find optional accessories, such as manifolds, that can be used to modify the filtration process to best suit the project requirements and throughput volume. If you have a need to perform any of the following applications:
- Cold-filtration to remove lipids or waxes, often called winterizing
- Clarification or plant debris removal
- Bacterial removal (using 0.2 or 0.45 micron PES filters)
- Batch processing with manifolds
- Ethanol washing
Then head to our Specialty Applications Section to find the best equipment to work with your botanical extraction process.
