- Title
RO MEMBRANES.
- Abstract
Membrion, Inc. has developed a new manufacturing approach called the Electro-Ceramic Desalination (ECD) process, which uses ceramic membranes for ion separation in extreme environments. The process involves shaping silica into membrane sheets with small enough pores for molecular transport. Membrion's ECD process targets ionically charged components, making it useful for treating wastewater streams with metal content and high acidity. In another development, NanoTech Materials Inc. is expanding its commercial partnerships for its Insulative Ceramic Particle (ICP) technology, which can be used in fireproof coatings and roof coatings that lower cooling energy demands. Toray Industries, Inc. has developed a highly durable reverse osmosis (RO) membrane that offers double the resistance to cleaning chemicals compared to conventional membranes, reducing performance degradation and simplifying operational management.
