Pilot testing and industrial trials
Alsys performs, especially, pilot testing and industrial trials in order to:
- Demonstrate the expected performances of the membrane process
- Provide the technical (design,...) and economical (OPEX, CAPEX) data necessary for the system development and risk assessment
The expected objectives are, therefore, the following:
- Validation of the filtration process and the results obtained during the feasibility tests
- Study the repeatability of the operating cycles (production, cleaning)
- Study of membrane ageing, evaluation of fouling, optimization of CIP (Cleaning In Place)
- Optimization of process parameters (velocity, pressure, cleaning frequency...)
- Development of industrial scale applications (basic and detailed preliminary project studies, FEED study...)
Wide Variety of Membrane Technologies:
- Cross-flow or dead-end process operation
- Ceramic materials (based on oxide or silicon carbide) or polymeric
- Tubular, flat sheet, hollow fiber , or spiral
- Reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration
- Pervaporation
- Gas separation
- Membrane contactor
- Combination of coagulation / adsorption (bentonite, powder activated carbon) / oxidation (chemical, ozone) and membranes
