Nanofiltration & Reverse Osmosis
(NF/RO) Systems
Engineered systems for laboratory and pilot-scale evaluation of nanofiltration and reverse osmosis membranes. These units support controlled testing of membrane performance under defined operating conditions. With the system it is possible to conduct permeability, retention, fouling and cleaning studies in a fully automatic way.
Microfiltration & Ultrafiltration
(MF/UF) Systems
Lab-scale and pilot-scale systems developed for research and comparative testing of microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes. The systems support permeability, retention, fouling, cleaning, backwash, and membrane aging studies, enabling efficient performance evaluation across different membrane materials and module configurations.
Membrane Distillation (MD) Systems
Membrane distillation systems designed for laboratory and pilot-scale research into thermally driven membrane separation processes. The systems enable controlled evaluation of water vapor flux, thermal efficiency, fouling behavior, and membrane stability under a wide range of operating conditions. Typical applications include desalination, wastewater treatment, and concentration processes, supporting performance assessment and process optimization for MD membranes.
Forward Osmosis (FO) & Pressure Retarded Osmosis (PRO) Systems
Lab-scale and pilot-scale systems for research into osmotically driven membrane processes. The systems support performance evaluation of FO and PRO membranes in applications such as water treatment, concentration processes, and energy-related studies, with compatibility for both flat sheet and hollow fiber membranes.
Pervaporation (PV) Systems
Lab-scale and pilot-scale systems designed for pervaporation research and process optimization, enabling evaluation of membrane separations driven by osmotic and vapor phase mechanisms. Typical applications include solvent dehydration, recovery of organic compounds from aqueous streams, VOC and aroma recovery, and hybrid distillation–pervaporation processes.
Gas Separation & Permeation Systems
Laboratory and pilot-scale systems developed for testing gas separation and gas permeation membranes under controlled conditions.
Electrodialysis (ED) Systems
Lab-scale and pilot-scale electrodialysis systems designed for research, development, and process evaluation of ion-exchange membrane technologies. The systems support fully programmable experiments, including voltage stepping, constant-current operation, and automated polarity reversal, and are compatible with different ED test cell configurations, enabling flexible and reproducible experimental workflows.
Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF) & Diafiltration Systems
Custom-engineered systems for tangential flow filtration and diafiltration, particularly suited for biopharmaceutical applications. The systems support protein concentration, buffer exchange, impurity and endotoxin removal, and clarification of cell lysates, while enabling precise control of transmembrane pressure, shear rate, and flow conditions. Compatibility with a wide range of membrane types and formats supports flexible process development and optimization.
Membrane Fouling Simulator (MFS)
A dedicated system developed to evaluate biofouling development on membranes under controlled and reproducible conditions. The MFS operates at constant flow and pressure while continuously monitoring pressure drop over time, enabling direct assessment of fouling-related flow resistance. Supplied with a test cell and spacer for flat sheet membranes, the system allows reliable comparison of different feed waters, membrane materials, and membrane–spacer configurations with respect to their biofouling potential.
Filter Integrity Test Systems
Customized systems developed for filter integrity testing in accordance with specific application and quality assurance requirements. The systems are engineered to match defined testing workflows and are suitable for use in pharmaceutical and biotech environments, including GMP-compliant settings, ensuring reliable and repeatable integrity verification.
