MF/UF Direct Retrofit Solutions with High Performance TIPS Hollow-Fiber Membranes
The last twenty years of the UF industry has been dominated by system manufacturers who provided their own proprietary modules and unique system designs. While this has changed somewhat in the past few years with the advent of the universal UF rack, a need has emerged from the base of installed capacity. Customers are looking for choices when purch...
Evaluation of Scinor Membrane for Retrofit and Future Expansion at the SPMWD
This paper describes pilot testing at the San Patricio Municipal Water District (SPMWD) to quality a Scinor membrane module for use for a retrofit and expansion at the plant. The plant wanted to evaluate alternative membranes that could be used as replacement for the currently installed membranes. Pilot procedures and data along with analyses are p...
Direct Module Retrofits: Operating History of Five Low Pressure Membrane Plants
Scinor manufactures direct retrofits modules for nearly all low pressure membrane systems on the market. This paper will discuss five plants that have operated with these membranes after the service life of the original membranes ended due to permeability loss, fiber breakage concerns, and/or increasing operating costs....
TIPS UF Membranes in Action: Immediate Performance Improvements and Enhanced Regulatory Compliance at 5 Reuse Facilities in CA
This presentation will discuss five (5) MF/UF membrane systems in California for indirect potable reuse that have operated with TIPS PVDF UF membranes. In some cases (WBMWD, OCWD, YVWD), existing membranes have been replaced using Direct RetrofitTM modules In other cases (MRWPCA, SMWD), TIPS membranes were selected for newly installed systems due t...
Direct Cassette Retrofit of NIPS UF Membranes with TIPS UF Membranes at Two Drinking Water Plants in North America
Direct Cassette Retrofit of NIPS UF Membranes with TIPS UF Membranes at Two Drinking Water Plants in North America
Direct Cassette Retrofit of NIPS UF Membranes with TIPS UF Membranes at Two Drinking Water Plants in the US
Two cities in the US became the first to replace their submerged NIPS membranes with retrofit cassettes and TIPS membranes supplied by Scinor Water America, LLC. The City of Chesapeake Virginia retrofit one 2 MGD train with four Scinor cassettes in September 2019. The City of Thornton Colorado retrofit one 7 MGD train with ten Scinor cassettes in...
Strategies and Options for Replacement of MF/UF Membranes and Upgrading Plant Performance
Microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) as applied on drinking water and wastewater has evolved significantly over the past 30 years. While research existed for some time, the technology started gaining acceptance in the early nineties with the introduction of dead-end mode (as opposed to crossflow mode), integrity tests, and cleaning protoco...
