Spiral Wound Membranes
Maximize product yields, maintain product consistency and quality
Sprial wound membranes from SUEZ cover a wide spectrum of technologies (reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration) and are constructed to meet the demands many applications:
- Concentrate and demineralize organics (sugars, proteins, whey)
- Purify and recycle process streams (acids, dyes, bio-chemicals)
- Recover valuables (metals, minerals, salts)
Sprial Wound Membrane Features
SUEZ custom designs membrane elements to operate effectively in challenging environments, including extreme pHs, temperatures from 40° to 158° Fahrenheit (5° to 70° Celsius), oil-contaminated streams, and highly viscous solutions.
Examples include:
- Hot water sanitizable membranes to reduce contamination and lower operating costs
- High pressure and high-temperature constructions to improve recovery and reduce cooling requirements
- Hydrophilic membranes for oil/water separations
- Sanitary elements to meet FDA regulations
How Do Spiral Wound Membranes work?
In the spiral wound membrane configuration, a flat sheet membrane and spacer are wound around the permeate collection tube to produce flow channels for permeate and feedwater. This design maximizes flow while minimizing the membrane module size.
