On-Board Scour
Polymer Flat Sheet
MBR. Polymer flat-sheet ultrafiltration for water and wastewater. On-Board Scour is the cassette. Municipal membrane bioreactor service.
MBR · Ultrafiltration · Water and wastewater
Membrane modules for MBR and ultrafiltration. Water and wastewater treatment. Start with the material. Then see what we have.
If you are not sure
Polymer and ceramic are both membrane modules for water and wastewater. The right one depends on the feed, the clean, and how long you want the module to live.
On-Board Scour. The municipal MBR cassette. Mixed liquor. A real plate. People who already want a flat sheet start here.
You can backwash it. Oils and aggressive chemicals. Very long life, municipal plants included. SiC or alumina, flat sheet or tube.
Temperature, pH, oil, and the cut you need. Application engineering will say polymer, ceramic, or we should talk. That is part of the quote.

Installed
Municipal membrane tank. The cassette runs submerged. Rendering.

Why it stays clean
Uniform water velocity between each plate. Dedicated valve. Same velocity, same scour on every plate.
Plates have room to scour. They are 41.2 in (1,047 mm), so the top of the plate stays clean. Channels stay open. You stay out of the tank.
The polypropylene support plate holds the Thermo Fisher PES sheet. The plate is lightened with a blowing agent. PP is a lighter American-made polymer, from American natural gas.
Sheet is 0.04 µm PES. Spontaneously wettable. Store wet or dry. No glycol.
