Uf Membranes
HMT Ultrafiltration membranes are designed to remove suspended solids, colloidal particles, bacteria, and high molecular weight contaminants from water. Utilizing advanced hollow fiber membrane technology, these UF membranes deliver consistent permeate quality and serve as an effective standalone filtration system or as pretreatment for reverse osmosis and membrane bioreactor applications.
The membranes operate at low transmembrane pressures, ensuring energy-efficient performance while minimizing fouling through automated backwashing and chemical cleaning protocols. Their durable construction and optimized fiber design provide long service life, reduced downtime, and stable filtration performance across varying water qualities.
HMT UF membranes are widely applied in drinking water treatment, wastewater tertiary treatment, industrial process water, RO pretreatment, and pharmaceutical and food industries. By choosing HMT, customers gain reliable filtration, lower operating costs, and dependable water quality supported by proven hollow fiber membrane expertise.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Hollowbrane Ultrafiltration (UF) systems represent the pinnacle of physical separation technology. Our plants utilize hollow-fiber membranes to provide an absolute barrier against suspended solids, colloids, bacteria, and viruses. These systems are specifically engineered as a robust pretreatment for Reverse Osmosis (RO) or as a stand-alone tertiary treatment for wastewater recycling.
