Ceramic Membranes on the Boise River

This presentation discusses the advantages of ceramic (CM) ultrafiltration membranes (UF) for surface water treatment for municipal drinking water applications. Nanostone piloted their ceramic membrane technology for 2 years on the Boise River, and has been retrofitting other polyeric membrane plants in the last few years. This presentation will discuss the similarities in operating strategies beween polymeric MF/UF versus Nanostone’s ceramic membranes, and the ease of retrofits to eliminate fiber breakage issues and cold water flux advantages.

This presentation is available to AMTA Members only.
