TUF (Tubular UltraFiltration) Membrane Equipment is a robust, high-performance filtration system designed for the direct treatment of difficult industrial wastewater and process streams. Built around durable tubular membrane modules, TUF equipment excels where suspended solids, oil, grease, or high viscosity would quickly clog conventional membrane systems, offering a dependable pretreatment or standalone separation solution across a wide range of industries.
Key Features
Large-Bore Tubular Channels: Internal tube diameters (typically 6–12.5 mm) allow challenging, high-solids, and viscous fluids to flow through freely without blockage.
Superior Anti-Fouling Performance: High cross-flow velocity generates continuous turbulence at the membrane surface, minimizing cake layer buildup and sustaining stable permeate flux.
Rugged Membrane Construction: Reinforced PVDF, PES, or modified PVC membrane substrates withstand high pressure, backwashing, and aggressive cleaning cycles for a long service life.
Flexible Cleaning Options: Compatible with chemical cleaning-in-place (CIP), mechanical sponge-ball cleaning, and hydraulic backflushing to restore flux quickly.
Consistent Effluent Quality: Removes suspended solids, emulsified oils, colloids, and bacteria to produce clear, low-turbidity permeate for discharge or downstream reuse.
Modular, Scalable Design: Configurable in skid-mounted or containerized units for straightforward capacity expansion and system integration.
