LG Chem – Leading the Chemical Industry Globally (http://www.lgchem.com)
LG Chem endeavors to become a ‘Global Top 5 Chemical Company’ with a balanced business portfolio with a competitive advantage across the globe, including business divisions in petrochemicals, advanced materials, life sciences, water solutions, and a subsidiary specializing in batteries.
LG Water Solutions (www.lgwatersolutions.com), a division of LG Chem, manufactures NanoH2O™ seawater and brackish water reverse osmosis (RO) membrane elements based on the breakthrough Thin-Film Nanocomposite (TFN) technology. TFN technology improves membrane performance by embedding benign nanoparticles on the membrane surface and increasing flux without compromising salt rejection.
NanoH2O™ SWRO membranes deliver industry-leading salt rejection and up to 20% more flow than conventional RO membranes, significantly reducing the cost of desalination while producing superior water quality.
NanoH2O™ BWRO membranes are engineered to lower OPEX through the intrinsic anti-fouling and durable membrane properties resulting in a lower total cost of plant ownership.
