Next month, from May 30 to June 2, Sterlitech heads back to New Orleans for the 115th General Meeting of the American Society of Microbiologists.  Join us at Booth #945 to see the latest in membrane filtration technology. Also, on the same dates, we'll also be at the annual meeting of the North American Membrane Society in Boston.  This marks our first time at NAMS and our first time attending two trade shows at once.  We hope to see you there!

As part of our mission to give scientists and researchers the tools they need to make breakthroughs and advances their research, we are constantly updating our line-up of flat sheet membranes.  This spring we will be adding new Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) membranes from Synder Filtration and new ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and microfiltration membranes from TriSep. The PX, PY, and PZ Polyacrylonotrile (PAN) ultrafiltration membranes are more hydrophilic, have lower fouling propensity compared to PVDF membranes, and are designed specifically for removing oil from feed water streams.  The new PAN membranes have a molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of 400 kDa (PX), 100 kDa (PY), and 30 kDa (PZ).  In addition to excelling at oil removal, Synder’s PAN membranes can be used in a wide range of separation applications such as enzyme purification. The new membranes from TriSep will cover a broad range of new applications from protein concentration to food processing and are listed below:

A new section in our Specialty Applications will be coming soon: Botanical Extraction. Botanical extracts run the gamut from volatile, aromatic compounds, to oils, and pharmacologically active chemicals.  The products in this section will be aimed at helping users achieve better separation of the botanical components to increase recovery of the targeted compounds.  Visit our site in the coming months for the latest news and updates on our selection of botanical extraction products.

We had a great time meeting you at the AMTA/AWWA Membrane Technology Conference and at Pittcon this month.  We would like to thank all of you for stopping by our booth and talking with us. If you missed a chance to chat with at those shows, we'll be exhibiting in New Orleans again at the ASM General Meeting, from May 30 to June 2. You can also catch us in Long Beach at the NAOSMM Conference from July 26 to July 31.

March 11, 2015March is Sterlitech's biggest month for trade shows and exhibitions.  This year we're doing back to back exhibitions at the AMTA/AWWA Membrane Technology Conference and at Pittcon.  And we're not the only ones.  At last week's AMTA Conference, we met with Lauren Weinrich who let us know that she would also be at Pittcon to present "Method Development Using Luminescence for Biodegradable Organic Carbon Measurements in Drinking Water." Her presentation will be part of a symposium held tomorrow, March 12, at 1:30 PM, titled "Using Analytical Solutions to Target Emerging Issues in Drinking Water Safety." The symposium will convey how analytical instrumentation is critical for monitoring and protecting public health in drinking water treatment. The symposium’s speakers include chemists, engineers, and public health officials that are on the forefront in analytical method development for unregulated contaminants, conducting emergency response, and optimizing drinking water treatment.

February 25, 2015In 2001, Mark Spatz founded Sterlitech Corporation, selling just one line of products: Silver Metal Membranes. In the 14 years since, Sterlitech has expanded its business, adding new membrane materials, membrane development technology, filter holders and laboratory equipment. Sterlitech has grown tremendously, becoming a leader in the filtration industry, making the Inc 5000 list of fastest growing small companies for three consecutive years. This level of success is especially remarkable considering that Mark’s background prior to founding Sterlitech was not in filtration. He had been a business data analyst for internet advertising and worked in professional marketing organizations. Prior to that, he studied at the University of Rhode Island where received a Master’s of Science Degree in Economics, specializing in Aquaculture. He did however, have family involved in the filtration industry and they lent him insights that helped him establish the business. As successful

Since 2011, Sterlitech has offered custom-built membrane testing systems to customers in desalination, membrane development, and food processing.  This year, from March 2-6, at the AMTA/AWWA Membrane Technology Conference in Orlando, we will be exhibiting a complete, 2-line, 6-cell CF042 crossflow testing system.  Each test system allows users to simulate the dynamics of larger membrane filtration systems by manipulating the control valves to achieve the desired pressure and flow rates.  The system is equipped with a suite of in-line sensors that automatically record and display the experimental data in real time. Stop by Booth 112 to check it out.  Mark, Kristina, and Sepideh will be on hand to explain how it works and answer your questions.

We have two new animations that show the inner workings and assembly of our Sepa CF and Sepa CF-FO membrane testing cells. The Sepa CF Cell is a lab-scale cross flow filtration unit that provides fast and accurate performance data with minimal amounts of membrane, product, expense or time. This cell is capable of performing reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration. The Sepa CF-FO Cell is a variant designed for forward osmosis and pressure-retarded osmosis. Both of these cells are available on our Membrane/Process Development page along with all of the components necessary for operation.

When the Seattle Seahawks beat the Green Bay Packers to reach the Super Bowl, Seattle fans exploded in celebration. The excitement was so strong and so real that it became tangible. And when it did, the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network (PNSN) was on hand to quantify it. Since 2011, when Seattle fans first tripped their seismic sensors, the PNSN has been monitoring the ground vibrations caused by crowd activity at CenturyLink Field.  This year, they placed new sensors in the stadium itself to test new technologies that will track earthquakes and disseminate seismic information to the public and authorities in the event of a real earthquake. Their new tool, dubbed "QuickShake," displays vibration data from CenturyLink Field in real-time on their website.  There is a three-second delay between the detection of the vibrations and when users were able to see them on the QuickShake tool.  To put that in perspective, the time delay in live broadcasts of football games
