The PURON MBR ultrafiltration membrane bioreactor series from Koch Membrane Systems is also designed to minimize downtime and increase flux in a cost efficient manner.
It features reinforced polyvinylidene fluoride hollow fibers that are fixed only at the bottom, virtually eliminating the build up of hair and fibrous materials that typically clog the upper ends of other modules.
Solids and particulates, including bacteria, remain on the outside, while permeate is drawn through the membrane to the inside of the fibers.
The modules feature the aeration nozzle in the center of the fiber bundle, scouring the entire length of the fibers and minimizing power consumption.
