Key Highlights
In March 2025, Toray Industries, Inc., developed a high-removal ultrafiltration (UF) membrane to reduce carbon dioxide emission with reverse osmosis (RO) membrane technology. The hybrid UF-RO was designed to combine the benefits of both UF and RO membranes, by enabled efficient wastewater recycling. The new high-removal UF membrane effectively reduced transmission of biopolymers, and helped to prevent fouling in downstream RO membrane, which improved water treatment efficiency.
Report Analysis:
Factors Consider for Microfiltration:
Microfiltration is a membrane-based separation process that removes particles and biological contaminants from fluids or gases. It works by passing the substance through a microporous membrane that captures particles in the size range of 0.025 µm to 10.0 µm. This filtration used in sensitive application, such as pharmaceutical production or sterile filtration.
Sample Characteristics: The membrane must be chemically compatible with both the solute and the solvent.
Throughput and Flow Rates: The flow rate of a fluid through a membrane is a key performance metric, indicating the rate of filtration can occur. Flow rate is influenced by several factors, including membrane thickness, porosity, and the internal architecture of the pores, the viscosity and other physicochemical properties of the sample.
Membrane Wettability: For effective liquid filtration, the membrane must be wettable by the fluid. Hydrophilic membranes are used for aqueous solutions, allowing the fluid to spread easily and pass through the filter.
Fouling Characteristics: Fouling depends on the pore structure, membrane material, and orientation, especially for asymmetric membranes, which have a gradient pore structure. Understanding fouling behavior is essential to selecting the right membrane for long-term use and determining cleaning or replacement intervals.
