Membrane CIP Technology SLM

Hydrite Membrane SLM is an informed method for analyzing your current membrane CIP program to provide insight into procedural changes for reduction in time, chemistry, energy, or water. By investigating a membrane system's unique Soil Load Map, recommendations can be made for optimizing the current program or investigating the impact of program changes while minimizing risks to production schedules and elements.

Food Equipment Technology

Hydrite has a state-of-the-art membrane cleaning lab allowing us to conduct trials and soil evaluations. We are equipped to perform cleaning studies that can recover water flux on certain membrane types. We also offer cutting-edge equipment that simplifies membrane management. This programmable equipment controls, dispenses, and records chemical volumes used in cleaning to prevent errors.

Membrane Training

We offer a comprehensive training program that covers membrane applications, systems, cleaning, and separation processes. By training your supervisors in such techniques, you ensure that your membranes are treated appropriately, extending their working life and performance.

When is Membrane Cleaning Complete?

Where is Membrane Technology Used?

Membrane technology plays a vital role in many environmental and industrial processes. In many cases, membranes are used to treat or filter water, but they can also be used in energy production, resource recovery, and pollution control. Whatever the application, membrane sanitation and cleaning is necessary, and the efficiency of these processes impacts a company's overall productivity.

Hydrite offers a full range of services designed to implement and maintain effective chemical membrane cleaning protocols in your facility. Our sanitation offerings extend from effective detergents to in-plant support and training, ensuring that you not only receive the right chemical products but that your employees use them properly.

The Membrane Separation Process

Because membranes are useful for filtration and separation, they hold value for clients in diverse industries. Common industries include:

Food and beverage
Wastewater treatment
Waste and recycling
Energy, oil, and gas
Paints, coatings, inks, and adhesives

While applications vary, the general principles underlying membrane separation remain the same—including the challenges presented by the systems. For instance, concentration polarization is a challenge faced by all separation processes which causes the composition to differ at the feed-membrane interface as compared to the rest of the mixture. While inevitable, this gradient negatively affects performance and failure rate, meaning it must be carefully managed for each individual implementation.

Hydrite has years of experience designing solutions that mitigate such challenges while meeting your own industry's specific requirements and regulations.
