EnviQ®
Submerged Ultrafiltration Membranes
QUA’s EnviQ® submerged ultrafiltration membranes are designed by our water experts to improve the performance and reliability of MBR facilities. EnviQ’s unique design provides high-quality product water quality and is optimized for robust operation, enabling reverse diffusion and purpose-designed air diffusion to optimize scrubbing efficiency, reduce operating pressure and minimize cleaning frequency.
The EnviQ membrane technology is engineered for superior performance, high quality filtration, small footprint and low OPEX. It is available in two variants – a flat sheet membrane and PVDF hollow fibre membrane to provide consistent ultrafiltration-quality effluent.
EnviQ® Technical Resources
High Quality Filtration
Our advanced membrane technology consistently delivers superior filtration (NTU < 1) to meet environmental regulations and extend the lifetime of downstream RO membranes.
Fouling-Resistant Design
Innovative reverse diffusion cleaning process maintains consistent productivity and stable TMP, preventing fouling buildup. It helps membranes operate at peak efficiency with stability for longer time.
Low Operating Cost
Our proprietary fouling-resistant membranes and advanced air diffuser design helps achieve consistent flux and transmembrane pressure (TMP), leading to reduced power consumption and less frequent cleaning.
Streamlined Installation & Maintenance
Our simple rack-type modular design makes installation and maintenance conveniently easy for the OEMs and operators resulting in saving valuable time and resources.
Compact Footprint
EnviQ offers higher mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentration compared to conventional processes, which reduces hydraulic retention time (HRT) and increases sludge retention time (SRT) to minimize space requirements.
How Does EnviQ® Work?
The EnviQ membrane has billions of microscopic pores on its surface that allow only water to pass, blocking impurities. Gentle suction draws the water through these pores, leaving solids behind and delivering high-quality effluent.
Peak performance is maintained with optimized fouling control, using a proprietary air diffuser to maintain consistent & continuous air scouring. This reduces cleaning frequency, maintains energy efficiency by preventing solids sticking to the membrane surface, and eliminates the potential for septic conditions due to solids settling at the tank bottom.
Applications of EnviQ®
EnviQ® – Product Variants
This high strength submerged ultrafiltration membrane comes in two variants – EnviQ XL and EnviQ RF.
