In the context of chemical recovery, prefiltration is employed to ensure the longevity and efficiency of the recovery process.
Industrial processes often produce complex mixtures of chemicals, some of which are valuable and need to be recovered. In this case, the recovery of H2SO4 from Anodizing industry or HCl from steel pickling can be mentioned as example.
Prefiltration aids in separating larger impurities from these mixtures, preparing them for further precise separation techniques. This step can reduce the burden on downstream processes (e.g Diffusion dialysis), prevent potential damage to sensitive equipment, and increase the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the recovery operation.
Types of Prefiltration System Based on Contaminants
Example: pilot test
In our effort to enhance unit design, we use our multifunction prefiltration pilot test to obtain key parameters
- Selection of appropriate membrane material (ceramic or polymer)
- Precise determination of membrane pore size (MF: 1.2 - 0.1 µm; UF: 0.05 μm - 500 Dalton).
- Evaluation of COD, TOC, TSS, etc. removal efficacy.
- Estimation of membrane permeability based on the solution type.
- Determination of operation mode (cross-flow or dead-end).
- Backwash duration estimation.
- Estimation required backwash time.
- Determining the optimal operating pressure.
The system is also stable for pH range 0 - 14
