Hollow Fiber Ultrafiltration Membrane Equipment for Industrial Water Purification


Product Description

Hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane equipment refers to the complete automated water treatment system centered on hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane modules. The core component, hollow fiber membrane, consists of countless tiny polymer fiber tubes with uniform micropores on the wall. Compared with plate and tubular membrane forms, hollow fiber designs deliver higher membrane area within limited space, significantly improving unit space water production capacity. The full set includes hollow fiber membrane assemblies, raw water lift pumps, backwashing pipelines, chemical cleaning dosing units, online water quality sensors and PLC control cabinet.

End users can select standalone skid-mounted hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane equipment for medium-small water treatment stations. For complex wastewater containing high viscosity pollutants, projects can add supporting Tubular Ultrafiltration Membrane for Heavy Polluted Water Treatment to handle fluid that cannot be processed directly by hollow fiber systems. For coastal desalination facilities, multiple sets of this equipment can be configured to form complete Desalination Ultrafiltration System, stabilizing SDI and turbidity of seawater before reverse osmosis desalination. This equipment is compatible with surface water, groundwater and secondary sewage effluent. It serves as reliable pretreatment equipment for pure water systems, circulating water replenishment and industrial wastewater recycling projects in food, pharmacy, chemical and municipal environmental protection industries.


Working Principle

Hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane equipment operates on low-pressure cross-flow membrane separation technology. Raw water enters the membrane module and flows outside or inside hollow fiber filaments under stable operating pressure ranging from 0.1 MPa to 0.3 MPa. Water molecules and soluble small ions pass through membrane wall micropores and converge as clean permeate water.

Suspended particles, algae, colloids, bacteria and macromolecular organic substances larger than membrane pore sizes are trapped on the membrane surface, and discharged continuously through concentrated water pipelines. Continuous cross-flow scouring reduces pollutant accumulation and prevents rapid membrane fouling. The system executes timed automatic backwashing to flush surface contaminants, and periodic chemical cleaning recovers membrane flux once obvious attenuation occurs. For high-pollution complex wastewater, pre-matching Tubular Ultrafiltration Membrane for Heavy Polluted Water Treatment removes large particles in advance to protect hollow fiber membrane components. In seawater desalination projects, multiple groups of hollow fiber membrane equipment are combined into a complete Desalination Ultrafiltration System, ensuring long-term stable pretreatment water quality for reverse osmosis desalination membranes.


Technical Features

  • Support inside-out and outside-in operation modes, adjustable according to raw water turbidity and pollution characteristics.

  • 3. Automatic cleaning configuration:

  • Equipped with backwashing, forward flushing and chemical cleaning programs to reduce manual maintenance workload.

  • 4. Modular expandable design:

  • Single set independent operation or multi-set parallel expansion to meet growing water production demands.

  • 5. Strong process compatibility:

  • Can form combined processes with Tubular Ultrafiltration Membrane for Heavy Polluted Water Treatment and integrate into standardized Desalination Ultrafiltration System.


  • Product Advantages

  • 1. Excellent space utilization:

  • Higher water yield per unit floor space compared with other ultrafiltration membrane forms, lowering civil construction investment.

  • 2. Mature and stable technology:

  • Hollow fiber ultrafiltration has decades of field-verified application experience, with abundant spare parts supply worldwide.

  • 3. Flexible load adaptation:

  • Effectively cope with short-term fluctuations of raw water turbidity and maintain steady effluent quality.

  • 4. Low operation investment:

  • Low working pressure reduces power consumption; standardized membrane modules are convenient for individual replacement instead of whole-set replacement.

  • 5. Wide material selection:

  • PVDF, PAN and PES membrane options are available to adapt to different water quality and chemical cleaning environments.


  • Application Fields

  • Industrial pure water pretreatment for electronics, pharmaceutical and beverage manufacturing production lines.

  • Municipal sewage plant advanced treatment to produce reclaimed water for industrial circulation and greening irrigation.

  • Brackish water and seawater desalination pretreatment, forming complete Desalination Ultrafiltration System.

  • Factory circulating cooling water purification to reduce scaling and corrosion of pipelines and heat exchangers.

  • Medium-turbidity wastewater recycling projects, cooperating with Tubular Ultrafiltration Membrane for Heavy Polluted Water Treatment to treat mixed wastewater.

  • Rural centralized domestic water supply projects for removing microorganisms and particulate impurities.


  • FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane equipment and tubular ultrafiltration systems?

A1: Hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane equipment features high membrane packing density and suits conventional water purification. Tubular Ultrafiltration Membrane for Heavy Polluted Water Treatment has wide flow channels and adapts to high-viscosity, high-solids wastewater. Users can combine both for multi-stage treatment.

Q2: Can hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane equipment be used for seawater desalination pretreatment?

A2: Yes. With anti-fouling PVDF membrane configuration, multiple units can be assembled as a complete Desalination Ultrafiltration System, effectively controlling SDI value to satisfy reverse osmosis inlet standards.

Q3: How long is the service life of hollow fiber membrane modules under normal operation?

A3: Under qualified pretreatment and standardized cleaning procedures, PVDF hollow fiber membrane elements can steadily operate for 3–5 years. Poor raw water quality and irregular cleaning will shorten service life.

Q4: Is the equipment fully automatic without constant manual monitoring?

A4: Standard configuration adopts PLC automatic control. It automatically completes backwashing and flushing, and triggers fault alarms. Regular routine inspection is recommended instead of full-time manual attendance.

Q5: Can we expand water production capacity by adding more membrane modules later?

A5: Yes. The equipment adopts modular design. Extra membrane racks can be added on the original frame, or multiple complete sets can run in parallel to expand system processing capacity.
