The flat-sheet type "ceramics" filter can be utilized in various applications.
Applicable for
| - | Industrial Wastewater |
| - | Domestic Wastewater |
| - | Pretreatment in Desalination |
Filtration System for
| - | Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) |
| - | Suspended Solids (SS) Removal/Bacteria Removal |
| - | Water Regeneration for Reuse |
Advantages
• Robust Properties
- Effective against several kinds of industrial wastewater containing solvent, oil and/or other chemicals.
- Suitable for separation of hard solid from water.
- Can simplify pre-treatment system for preventing damage to membrane.

• High Reliability and Long Life Span
- No breakage of membrane.
- High resistance to chemical damage and thermal degradation.
• Small Footprint
- Higher flux results in smaller footprint compare to that of flat-sheet type polymer membrane.
• Energy Saving
- Sheet-form arrangement and air-dispersal method facilitate more effective air-scrubbings.
- Ceramic membrane bioreactor requires low amount of scrubbing air thereby reducing energy consumption.

• Easy Maintenance and Green Technology
- Automatic back wash and on-line cleaning remove the need for daily maintenance.
- Membrane surface can easily be cleaned by high-pressure water jet.
- After end-of-life, ceramic membrane can be recycled into other kinds of ceramic product.
