SiC Flat Membranes

Semicorex SiC flat membranes are manufactured via multiple sintering processes of high-purity silicon carbide fine powder at 2400℃ high-temperature using recrystallization technology. As the advanced ultrafiltration membrane separation solution, Semicorex SiC flat membranes feature unparalleled material advantages.

The Characteristics of Silicon Carbide

1.High hardness, high strength, and exceptional impact resistance.

2.Strong chemical stability to withstand corrosion from most acids, alkalis, salt solutions, and organic solvents.

3.Superior high-temperature stability for their high thermal conductivity and low coefficient of expansion

4.Pure composition, free of PFAS and other toxic impurities.

Mechanism of Semicorex SiC Flat Membranes

Semicorex SiC flat membranes utilize the principle of submerged ultrafiltration to achieve highly efficient and precise water treatment. During operation, SiC membrane modules is fully submerged in the raw water or wastewater to be treated, and filtration is driven by negative pressure provided by the siphon or pump. Semicorex SiC flat membranes have numerous micropores distributed on their surface and inside. Relying on these micropores, SiC flat membranes allow small water molecules to pass smoothly through the membrane pores and flow from the central orifice of the membrane to the water production outlet. Meanwhile, the large contaminants like particles, colloids, bacteria, and oil droplets are effectively rejected, thus achieving precise separation and filtration.

Advantages of Semicorex SiC Flat Membranes

1.Excellent anti-fouling performance

The negative surface charge of Semicorex SiC Flat Membranes makes it difficult for colloids, suspended solids, oil droplets, and other substances to adhere. Routine backwashing can easily remove these substances, which significantly lower the risk of membrane fouling.

2.High flux capacity

Semicorex SiC flat membranes deliver excellent three-dimensional connectivity of internal channels due to their high porosity(exceeding 45%). This special porous structure unlocks an ultra-high flux capability of up to 3200 LMH.

3.Long service life

Semicorex SiC flat membranes are free from mechanical and chemical fatigue, offering an unparalleled lifespan compared to similar membrane products. Thanks to their corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning, regular backwashing and chemical cleaning can restore their high-efficiency filtration performance.

Application of Semicorex SiC Flat Membranes

1.Wastewater treatment like membrane bio-reactor, domestic sewage and municipal sewage treatment.

2.Seawater desalination pre-treatment.

3.High standard drinking water purification.

4.Sludge thickening treatment

5.Brine purification.
