Product Overview
The EM-UF8080-PVDF utilizes polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber technology, renowned for its superior mechanical strength, anti-fouling characteristics, and long operational lifespan even in aggressive water conditions. With a nominal pore size of 0.03 microns, this membrane ensures the effective separation of suspended solids, turbidity, bacteria, and viruses, while maintaining high flux rates and backwash recovery. Its outside-in filtration design allows for higher solids loading tolerance, making it particularly suitable for water reuse systems that treat wastewater, greywater, or tertiary effluent.
Built for ease of integration into existing treatment lines, this ultrafiltration module supports both pressurized and submerged system configurations and meets the growing demand for sustainable water treatment technologies.
