These membrane modules handle the challenges of landfill leachate
CUT Membrane Technology
The new T-CUT tubular modules (photo) with membranes made from PVDF and PES expands this company’s family of products by another robust tubular module. The special stability of the membranes together with the possibility of chemical cleaning means that T-CUT tubular modules can be used in challenging applications, such as those found in the metal-processing industry and for treating landfill leachate. For example, two landfill-leachate water-treatment plants in Portugal have been running successfully since the beginning of 2015. Each of the installed T-CUT tubular modules handles approximately 12 m3/h of raw water, and generates around 3 m3/h of dischargeable permeate. The peak flux is 120 L/(m2·h) with a particle content of approximately 3.0 g/L. Hall A2, Stand 519 — CUT Membrane Technology GmbH, a subsidiary of the Bürkert Group, Erkrath, Germany
