1. Product Introduction of Ceramic Membrane Ultrafiltration Membrane Equipment
Different from conventional PVDF hollow fiber organic ultrafiltration membranes, ceramic membrane ultrafiltration membrane equipment uses alumina, zirconia and other inorganic ceramic materials sintered at high temperature to make tubular or multi-channel ceramic membrane elements as the core filter medium. The complete set of equipment is composed of ceramic membrane module support frame, raw water delivery pump, backwashing system, high-temperature chemical cleaning unit, security pre-filter and PLC intelligent automatic control cabinet, realizing automatic continuous filtration, online backwashing and regular chemical cleaning operations. All finished ceramic membrane ultrafiltration equipment will pass hydraulic pressure test, high-temperature flushing test and 72h continuous operation debugging before factory delivery to ensure stable operation after customer installation.
We collocate ceramic membrane products with multiple organic membrane filtration devices to meet diversified market demands. For conventional normal-temperature water purification projects with mild water quality conditions, customers can adopt cost-effective Hollow Ultrafiltration Equipment for daily water filtration work. For overall water treatment station construction projects, the integrated Ultrafiltration UF System can realize unified pipeline layout and program linkage control. When the water body contains a large amount of suspended solids and viscous pollutants, the reinforced High Performance Industrial Ultrafiltration Equipment matches ceramic membrane to strengthen overall anti-pollution ability. In industrial zero-discharge projects, the optimized Ultrafiltration Water Reuse Equipment cooperates with ceramic membrane components to improve water recovery rate greatly. For long-term uninterrupted production operation scenarios, wear-resistant Durable Ultrafiltration Equipment Device plus ceramic membrane modules can extend the overall service life of the filtration system effectively.
The equipment support frame and process pipelines adopt SUS304 stainless steel as the standard configuration, and SUS316L stainless steel is matched for strong acid and alkali wastewater environments. Ceramic membrane ultrafiltration equipment supports unattended automatic operation, with differential pressure real-time monitoring, automatic backwash triggering and chemical cleaning timing setting functions, which greatly reduces manual intervention frequency. As the direct production manufacturer without intermediate distributors, we provide customers with ceramic membrane scheme customization, spare parts long-term supply and full-cycle technical guidance services.
2. Working Principle of Ceramic Membrane Ultrafiltration Membrane Equipment
Ceramic membrane ultrafiltration equipment operates based on cross-flow filtration principle, relies on pressure difference as driving force, and completes graded interception of impurities through the microporous structure on the ceramic tube wall. The whole operation cycle is divided into three core working modes: normal filtration water production, automatic backwashing, periodic chemical cleaning.
2.1 Normal Filtration and Water Production Stage
Raw liquid is pressurized by the feed pump and flows at a certain flow velocity inside the ceramic membrane channel. The aperture of ceramic ultrafiltration membrane is controllable between 0.01~0.1μm. Water molecules and small molecular soluble substances penetrate the ceramic membrane wall radially outward to form qualified permeate water for subsequent production use. Suspended particles, colloids, macromolecular organic matter, bacteria and microorganisms are intercepted on the inner surface of the ceramic membrane tube. The high-speed tangential flow of raw liquid forms cross-flow scouring effect, continuously washing the membrane surface to slow down the accumulation of pollutant cake layer and maintain stable membrane flux.
2.2 Automatic Backwashing Process
With the gradual deposition of intercepted pollutants, the pressure difference between the feed side and the permeate side rises continuously. Once the data reaches the preset threshold value, the PLC control system automatically opens the backwashing pipeline valve. Clean permeate water carries out reverse flushing on the outer wall of the ceramic membrane to peel off the surface pollutant layer and discharge the concentrated wastewater out of the system. The backwashing process is fast and will not cause long-term interruption of the system water supply.
2.3 Periodic Chemical Circulation Cleaning
Physical backwashing cannot remove the organic dirt, biological mucilage and inorganic scale attached to the ceramic membrane pores after long-term operation. The supporting acid-base dosing system performs circulating soaking cleaning on the ceramic membrane components to thoroughly clean stubborn pollutants, restore the original flux of the ceramic membrane, and protect the long-term stable use of core membrane elements.
