dizzer® XL 0.9 MB 60 WR UF Membrane Inge Equivalent

Product Introduction

The dizzer® XL 0.9 MB 60 WR UF Membrane is an advanced ultrafiltration (UF) module engineered as a high-performance equivalent to the original Inge dizzer® ultrafiltration systems. Built to match the same operating specifications, materials, and dimensions as Inge’s dizzer® XL series, this membrane is ideal for industrial and municipal water treatment facilities that demand exceptional water quality, high durability, and cost-effective operations.

This module incorporates Multibore® hollow fiber membrane technology, which combines the benefits of multiple capillaries in a single fiber structure. It is capable of removing bacteria, viruses, suspended solids, and other fine contaminants while maintaining high flow rates and low energy consumption. Its versatility makes it a go-to choice for various applications including drinking water purification, wastewater recycling, and pre-treatment for reverse osmosis systems.

Working Principle

The dizzer® XL 0.9 MB 60 WR UF membrane functions based on the outside-in flow configuration using Multibore® UF membrane fibers. These fibers consist of seven capillaries integrated into a single fiber, enhancing mechanical stability and ensuring consistent filtration even under fluctuating pressure conditions.

Here’s how the process works:

1.    Feed Water Entry: Contaminated water enters the shell side of the module and surrounds the outside surface of the hollow fibers.

2.    Filtration: Under low pressure, water passes through the 0.02 µm pores of the membrane. Suspended solids, bacteria, viruses, and colloids are retained on the outer surface.

3.    Permeate Collection: Clean water flows into the lumen of the fibers and is collected at the end of the module.

4.    Backwashing/CIP: The module supports periodic backwashing and chemical cleaning (CIP) to restore membrane permeability and maintain performance.

This filtration process ensures that only purified water passes through, delivering consistent quality with minimal fouling.
