Low-Pressure Spiral RO Membrane Element ES15-D
Widely Used for Primary Desalination in Ultrapure Water Production Systems and Desalination of Brackish Water.
Outline
ES15-D is a fully aromatic polyamide ultra-low pressure spiral RO membrane element suitable for applications such as primary desalination in ultrapure water production systems and desalination of brackish water. Its excellent features allow drastic reduction in electricity consumption, facility costs such as pumps and piping, and saves a required installation space.
Features
- The water permeate flow increased significantly while maintaining the NaCl rejection at 99.5% which is equivalent to the previous model.
- Enables extremely low-pressure operations at 0.5-0.6MPa.
