FMT offers two types of ceramic membrane filtration systems, Ceramem® and Kleansep™
CeraMem® Ceramic Membrane Filters For Industrial Applications:
This product line of membranes and modules are large-diameter monolithic ceramic membranes mainly composed of Silicon Carbide. CeraMem membranes have provided a robust solution for water and waste water treatment needs across a variety of industries for over 30 years. Used either in dead- end or in crossflow operation, CeraMem membranes offer a large membrane area in a compact footprint compatible with a wide range of conditions. Ceramem was acquired by Alsys from Veolia in 2017.
Filtration pore sizes to .005 microns (5 nm) are available. This product line covers the MF Microfiltration (0.1 -10 micron) and UF Ultrafiltration (0.005-0.1 micron). In cross-flow filtration mode these systems offer the user a continuous self-cleaning filtration system.
