Processes
pervaporation / vapor permeation
- dehydration of solvent mixtures
- alcohol absolutation
- splitting of azeotropes without entrainers
- removal of water while processing esterification or condensation reactions
- capacity increase at existing rectification plants (reduction of reflux)
micro- / ultrafiltration
- seperation of emulsions (i.e. oil/water)
- rejection of suspended particles and colloids
- concentration of bio masses (i.e. milk products)
- waste water treatment (i.e. rinsing water)
- pretreatment for following process steps
nanofiltration
- recovery of valuable compounds (i.e. CIP cleaning agents)
- drinking water production (i.e. decarbonisation)
- recycling of acid cleaning solutions
- removal of heavy metals
reverse osmosis
- boiler feed water production
- drinking water production from brackish or sea water
- processing of surface water for industrial applications
- waste water treatment
- pretreatment for following process steps (i.e. ion exchange)
