UF (Ultra Filtration) Plants
An ultrafiltration (UF) plant is a water treatment system that uses a membrane with very small pores to remove particles, bacteria, viruses, and some dissolved substances from water. This process produces high-quality filtered water suitable for various applications, including drinking water, wastewater treatment, and industrial processes.
Process Description:
Ultrafiltration plants purify water by forcing it through pressure-resistant membranes with tiny pores. These pores act as a barrier, allowing water and small molecules to pass through while blocking impurities like bacteria and suspended solids. The filtered water is collected, and the concentrated waste stream is disposed off. Pre-treatment and sometimes post-treatment steps like disinfection might be involved depending on the raw water quality and desired end use of the purified water.
