Typically, a lot of different sorts of compounds are present in a fluid, either suspended – varying in size – or dissolved – varying in weight. This filtration overview stresses the importance of decent RO pretreatment to prevent from fouling or plugging caused by the suspended compounds. X-Flow UF membrane modules are specifically developed for the effective removal of these compounds like bacteria, viruses and solids to protect the downstream (spiral wound) NF/RO*.

* Please note that the X-Flow membrane portfolio includes innovative hollow fiber NF. This technology does not require the pretreatment that a spiral wound NF would need due to two of its unique features: backwash ability and high chlorine resistance.
