New, efficient decanters for environmental applications

Efficient acceleration of the product in the feed zone combined with an optimized discharge system enables the new C-Series environmental decanter line to boast a reduced power consumption of up to 20–30% for capacities of 20 to 90 m3/h. This…

These Filters Compactly Provide Large Membrane Surface Areas…

The ongoing scaleup of numerous microfiltration plants has increased demand for filtration modules with large membrane surface areas — a demand adequately met by the new Microdyn and Seprodyn tubular modules, MD220 TP 2L (photo) and SE220 TP 1L. While…

Powerful, high-flow filtration in a compact footprint

The AFR Series Tubular Backwash Filter System (photo) is designed for continuous, high-flow filtration (single-system flowrates up to 2,000 gal/min and 454 m 3 /h). The system is designed to replace a much larger eight-station tubular multiplex system in a…

Optimize spray drying with this simulation tool

Developed over the last three years, Drynetics is a concept for using computer simulations to optimize a spray drying plant (photo). The model is put into the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of full-scale spray dryers, and incorporates the know-how…

These membranes enable higher pressure operation of RO plants

This firm has modified its spiral-wound membrane elements in a way that enables reverse osmosis (RO) desalination plants to operate at pressures of up to 120 bars — considerably higher than the 80 bars used in conventionally driven, high-pressure RO…

Pista Turbo grit washer

The Pista Turbo grit washer contains new technology that can achieves grit retention of 95% down to 140 mesh particle size. It can produce drier and cleaner grit with less putrescible organic material. The new technology, called Tri-cleanse, features intense…

Filter media that saves rinsing time and costs

E. Begerow Mineral-free and made of high-purity cellulose, the new Becopad depth-filter medium (photo) offers very high filtration performance, high chemical resistance and strength, and minimum ion release. The range of applications includes haze reduction for fine chemical products, catalyst…

… As Do these Reverse Osmosis Membranes

The 16-in. Filmtec Reverse Osmosis (RO) filtration membranes offer an active surface area of 1,725 ft 2 — a four-fold increase in active surface area compared to the 8-in. RO elements currently in use. With this dramatic increase in active…

Reduce hydrocarbon contamination up to 95% in a single pass

The Carbflex OAC-20BB Oil Absorbing Filter Cartridge (photo) is an efficient, high-capacity solution for reducing hydrocarbon contamination and other pollutants. The OAC-20BB filter cartridge is constructed from modified cellulose-based filter media for exceptional absorption, delivering high flowrates and low pressure…

For high throughputs, consider this pressure drum filter

The Pressure Drum Filter (photo) consists of a fully opening pressure vessel with a fixed bumped boiler end on the drive side and a moveable cylindrical housing on the opposite side. Both parts are locked pressure tight by a snap…
