Effective solids separation and pathogen removal

Ultrafiltration (UF) is a pressure-driven barrier to suspended solids, bacteria, viruses, endotoxins and other pathogens to produce water with very high purity and low silt density. It serves as a pretreatment for surface water, seawater, and biologically treated municipal effluent before reverse osmosis and other membrane systems.GE Ultrafiltration membranes are supplied with nominal pores size in the range of 20 – 40 nm and achieve greater than 6-log (99.9999%) removal of Cryptosporidium and Giardia Lamblia.

UF is also used in industry to separate suspended solids from solution. Industrial applications include power generation, food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical production, biotechnology, and semiconductor manufacturing. GE ultrafiltration systems consistently deliver water to meet your specifications.
