LG Chem expands its RO membranes

The new LG BW 400 AFR reduces performance deterioration due to organic and biological fouling, a common problem in water treatment applications.  LG Chem’s AF formulation achieves improved anti-fouling performance without losing the highly permeable nature of the membrane’s surface.  This makes the LG BW 400 AFR useful for applications with high fouling potential such as wastewater reuse and reclamation, industrial wastewater treatment, and RO brine recovery.  

Dr. Hoon Hyung, vice-president of Project Engineering for LG Water Solutions said that the company has maintained the membrane’s performance while delivering excellent fouling resistance.
