Compared with traditional water treatment technology, ultrafiltration membrane technology not only has good application effects, but also can improve the utilization efficiency of water treatment resources, and has better economic and environmental benefits. Ultrafiltration membrane technology has a high impurity removal efficiency, and the filtration accuracy can reach more than 99%, which can effectively ensure the water quality of the produced water. In addition, after using ultrafiltration membrane technology, the use of chemical agents can be reduced as much as possible or even eliminated, avoiding secondary pollution in water treatment. When ultrafiltration membrane technology is applied, it has the characteristics of automated processing system, simple operation, and operators generally only need to control the opening and closing of the facility, and the facility operation reliability is high.

FAQs
Q: What materials are UF membranes made from?
A: Common materials: Polyethersulfone (PES), Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF), and Cellulose Acetate (CA). PVDF offers high chemical/thermal resistance; PES balances cost and performance.
Q: How is "flux" defined in UF systems?
A: Flux = Permeate flow per unit membrane area (e.g., LMH – Liters/m²/hour). Higher flux may increase fouling; optimal flux depends on feed quality.
Q: Can UF remove microplastics or PFAS?
A: Microplastics (≥0.1 μm): Yes (via size exclusion). PFAS: Partial removal (only larger PFAS molecules); RO or activated carbon is more effective.
