Heat-Sanitizable Reverse Osmosis for Pharmaceutical Production

This reverse osmosis system features full-fit cage-wrapped heat-sanitizable membrane elements which allow the user to disinfect the system using hot (85C) water.  The system includes all 316SS piping, valves, and brake tank for corrosion resistance and heat tolerance.  All permeate piping is sanitary, and provides for automatic diversion of all low-quality permeate to drain.  The heat-sanitization process is automatic to ensure proper heat ramp-up and cool-down.

Automated Membrane Testing and Cleaning

This custom membrane cleaning and testing system allows the user to individually conduct performance tests on 2.5″, 4″, and 8″ reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membrane elements.  Performance tests are done before and after cleaning to confirm the effectiveness of the cleaning.  Post-cleaning performance testing data is downloaded to an Excel spreadsheet for reporting and analysis.


The system also automatically performs flushing, acid cleaning, and caustic cleaning for up to four (4) 2.5″ x 40″ membranes, ten (10) 4″ x 40″ membranes, and six (6) 8″ x 40″ membrane elements.
