NANOFILTRATION

The use of nanofiltration for water softening is widespread. Other common applications include color removal. Nanofiltration membranes also offer selective removal of calcium, magnesium and other undesirable salts. Nanofiltration bridges the gap between reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration. It is often used for desalting and concentration duties in the textile industry.

In contrast, food industry often uses reverse osmosis for processing fruit juices, and tea, coffee and sugar solutions. It is also often used for treating effluent streams and can be also used to treat landfill leachate.

A wide range of industrial applications use ultrafiltration, as its versatile nature lends itself to separating flows as diverse as effluent streams from dye-houses and pulp mills to juice clarification.
