Technology description:
The unique design feature of the gravity operated Alfa Laval Membrane Filtration Module is that it operates with an exceptionally low transmembrane pressure (TMP). The low TMP considerably reduces the need for cleaning, thus significantly reducing both capital and operating expenditure.
