Common Membrane Materials of Construction

• Polymeric
• pH sensitive, typical range 3.5-10.5
• Temperature sensitive, typical limit 130-140
  degrees F
• Requires comparatively frequent service or
  replacement
• Membrane can be punctured housing, typically
  plastic, can crack if struck or dropped
• No back-pulsing or deadheading if supported
  membrane skin may separate from substrate
• Ceramic
• pH 0-14, resists acidic and alkaline conditions
• Wide temperature range
• Fragile, easily cracks, could shatter if dropped
  careful servicing and handling required
• Capable of being back-pulsed or deadheaded
• Arbortechs TiO2/Stainless Steel Membrane
• pH 0-14, thrives under both highly acidic and
  extremely caustic conditions

Installation Needs

• WW ships fully assembled, except for membrane(s)
• Plumb gravity feed line (or siphon) from wash
  tank to WW pre-filter or WWLG process tank
• Run electrical for circulation pump (and any
  options)
• Some series simple as plug into 20-amp
• 1/60/110 outlet(s) - larger WWs are 3 phase
• Plumb from permeate fitting on membrane
  housing(s) back to washer, or place membrane(s)
  in washer
• Not much more to do, but full details in manual
  with lots of pictures - simple to follow and
  understand
• Its that easy --- recycling in a matter of
  minutes

Minimal Maintenance

• Empty process tank of concentrated residual
• Change or clean pre-filter as needed
• Periodically restore membrane performance
• Frequency dependent on oil/soil loading other
  factors
• More often if start-up is on a dirty bath, but if
  sized correctly eventual equilibrium
• Arbortech offers contract cleaning service
• Except with WWPro Series, a spare membrane is
  included for each one in use exchanged into
  service while the other is being rejuvenated,
  which means almost no down time and virtually
  continuous recycling

32
What to Expect / Why Recycle?

• Simple operation
• Extended cleaning bath life, often 4-6X or more
• Cleaner parts and improved subsequent steps
  like painting, powder-coating, plating, etc.
• Substantial reduction in cleaning chemistry
  purchases
• Less rinse water usage
• Waste concentrated, therefore disposal costs drop
  ISO 14001
• Reduced dump/recharge labor costs
• Smaller utility bills
• Short payback time
• Excellent ROI
