The cross-flow filtration, a cutting-edge technology ![]() The filtration processes associating membranes and a cross-flow are made to separate dissolved and suspended elements according to their molecular weight and their size. The membrane acts as a filter as it creates a difference of pressure between the retentate and the permeate. The substances smaller than the membrane’s pores are carried away by the solvent (permeate) whereas the bigger molecules or particles are retained (retentate). The cross-flow filtration technique - by precise and selective separation such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis, associated or coupled to other industrial processes in order to increase the performance - has undeniable, incomparable and irreplaceable advantages. |
