Able to remove suspended and emulsified containments from wastewater without treatment chemicals, Thermal Energy International’s new Flu-Ace Ceramic Microfiltration System provides massive reductions in water and effluent costs.
Claiming a two-year payback, the CMF reduces water usage as well as energy consumption by recovering the heat in the wastewater. Suspended and emulsified contaminants are removed, producing first-rate water quality.
Using cross-flow filtration technology, contaminated wastewater permeates through the CMF’s ceramic filter channels at high velocity. The ceramic filters are coated with fine membranes, providing filtration to a variety of sub-micron pore sizes. Cleaned filtrate is diverted to a storage system for recycling whilst rejected contaminants are collected in a small ‘concentrate’ waste stream.
Requiring only minimal maintenance, the CMF’s cost effective, compact and totally pre-piped design is fully automated and can provide up to 90 per cent recovery of processed water and guarantee performance under high temperature and pH.
