Hollow fiber UF membrane separation system
MSS series

For various liquid treatment processes, including filtration, separation, concentration, and purification

We have released simple membrane treatment systems with a single UF membrane module.
These are entry-level models of membrane treatment systems developed by DAICEN, which has specialized in organic separation membranes for more than half a century.
Customers who have confirmed the applicability of membrane treatment through small-scale evaluations are encouraged to use the MSS series as the next step in their evaluation. It can be used not only for continuous research and evaluation, but also for low-volume production.

Mechanism

The MSS series is capable of handling all kinds of liquid treatment processes, including concentration, separation, purification, and filtration.
The role of each line within the system varies depending on the desired treatment operation.

Concentration

Only substances larger than the molecular cut-off of the separation membranes remain , while small impurities such as ions and water molecules are removed. This results in the concentration of only large substances.

Separation

By using a separation membrane module with a molecular cut-off suitable for separating the desired substances, substances mixed in a liquid are separated based on their size differences.

Purification

By adding water to the undiluted solution to keep the polymer on the concentrated liquid side, ions and low-molecular-weight substances are permeated to the filtrate side to increase the purity of the polymer.

Filtration

The separation membrane treatment in the UF range removes polymeric impurities, turbidity, bacteria, and viruses, enabling clarification and disinfection of the filtrate.
