KOMPasep DE-Line

Polymer Membrane Systems

 

Application

The ultrafiltration plants of the KOMPasep-DE-Line are used for the recycling and the disposal of various effluents and substances. The used polymer- membranes are working at a low solid content with temperatures to max 40°C.

  • Abrasive and saw waste water of the semiconductor manufacturing
  • Removing of metal particles
  • Removing of colloidal substances

Process Characteristics

The Dead-End-Ultrafiltration is a physical separation process. The process deposits contained solid substances from the medium. The medium to be separate flows into the membrane with a specific pressure (Dead-End-process).

In specific intervals, the filtrated substances are rinsed out and the separation process will start again.

The pore size of the membrane is dimensioned that small molecules like water and solved materials pass (permeate) and corresponding solids keep back (concentrate).

Description of plant

The KOMPasep-DE-Line plants consists of:

  • Storage tank
  • Pre- filtration
  • Dead-End-ultrafiltation plant
  • Rinsing tank
  • Disinfecting unit

The operation of these plants is subdivided into the following main steps:

  • Separation: Filtration with drain of the permeate
  • Back flushing: removing of the deposit solids
  • Disinfecting: Protection from possible organic/fouling
