Filtration+Separation September/October 2015

Membrane for produced water treatment Pentair X-Flow has added the Compact 75G to its range of membranes. The Compact 75G is a 12 inch × 3 m module for its tubular ultrafiltration membranes. Built from glass-fibre-reinforced epoxy and equipped with flange connections on both the feed and permeate side, the Compact 75G is claimed to be a robust membrane module with high mechanical strength and high chemical resistance.

highly suitable for a broad range of wastewater treatment applications, such as produced water treatment. Due to its large size, a significant reduction in piping and equipment can be achieved in the membrane unit. According to the company, this allows for large scale water treatment plants to be built cost effectively and with a small footprint.

Pentair X-Flow says that these features make the module

Pre-treatment system has reduced footprint ZW1500 RMS is claimed to cost 75% less than a typical rack, has minimized site assembly, and its modular design makes for easy installation and plant expansion. www.gewater.com

GE claims that Procera solutions are designed to help improve equipment durability. The pretreatment components protect membrane desalination systems by removing suspended solids and impurities. After analysis of an operator’s source water and conservation needs, modular desalination systems are then fitted to their applications. For pressurized ultrafiltration (UF) systems, GE adds that the new ZW1500 RMS is a costeffective modular system, which provides a 50% reduction in rack footprint. It uses ZeeWeed membrane technology to produce a water quality suitable to feed reverse osmosis systems. The

INDA, the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, is seeking nominations from companies with nonwoven products and technologies for its 5th annual RISE® Durable Product Award. The award will be presented at the Research, Innovation & Science for Engineered Fabrics (RISE) Conference, which will be held from 25-28 January 2016, at Le Meridien Hotel in New Orleans, USA. The RISE Durable Product Award is given annually to a durable nonwoven product chosen for its use of nonwoven fabric and/or technology that is commercially sold and used in the consumer or industrial marketplace. “RISE is designed for technology scouts focused on new developments that are beyond the research phase and have the potential to be integrated rapidly

The Pentair X-Flow Compact 75G is designed for the treatment of produced water and other wastewaters.

GE Power & Water has added the ZeeWeed™ 1500 RMS (Rackless Modular System) to its Procera™ Seawater Solutions range for seawater pre-treatment of reverse osmosis systems.

Selective extraction technology for desalination Adionics has launched SELECTEX®, a selective extraction solution for water deionization in desalination applications. According to the company, Selectex is able to extract families of ions in line with Mendeleev classification columns, such as alkali metals (cations+) or alkaline earth metals (cations++). However, in addition it can pick out up to three cations from high saline waters, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, strontium or barium as neutral salts, to meet the process specification while the other ones are left in the treated water. The company says that this new approach is expected to have applications in many industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, oil and gas, and mining. Adionics says that Selectex stands for selective extraction and is a derivation of its AquaOmnes®
