Stainless Steel Membranes |
By definition, stainless steel is a steel alloy that consist of a minimum of 11.5% chromium content by mass. It does not stain, corrode or rust as easily as ordinary steel. As a membrane, this inert and highly durable inorganic material can withstand elevated temperatures and pressures, concentrated solvents or extreme pH. It has a much longer service life (more than 10 years of life span) than most ceramic and polymeric membranes. It is arguably one of the most durable and anti-fouling membranes in the world.
The structure is a combination of a rugged tube made of sintered stainless steel powder coated with a sintered titanium dioxide (TiO2) layer permanently bonded to the porous stainless steel tube.
The stainless steel membrane is housed in a virtually bullet-proof stainless steel construction with unique wielding technology. It allows the processing of a wide variety of difficult, dirty or hostile streams in a broad range of chemical conditions, pressures and temperatures. Hence, aging potties and seals are also problems of the past. |
