Water Softening Nanofiltration Membrane for Selective Filtration
JOZZON’s 8-inch Water Softening Nanofiltration Membrane elements (JNF-8040 Series) are engineered with state-of-the-art surface coating technology to deliver high permeate flow at ultra-low operating pressure. Featuring a large effective membrane area of 400 ft² (37.2 m²), this industrial 8-inch nanofiltration membrane provides exceptional removal of Total Organic Carbon (TOC), herbicides, and divalent hardness ions (Ca2+, Mg2+) while allowing moderate monovalent salinity to pass through.Designed for industrial water treatment and process fluid purification, the JOZZON water softening NF membrane significantly reduces operating pressure compared to standard reverse osmosis (RO) systems. It delivers an eco-friendly, energy-efficient solution for potable water production, wastewater softening, and non-thermal liquid concentration.
Features & Benefits
1. Highly Efficient Selective Filtration & Hardness Removal
Utilizing specialized membrane surface chemistry, the water softening Nanofiltration Membrane precisely captures divalent hardness ions (Ca2+, Mg2+), heavy metals, micro-pollutants, and organic precursors while retaining essential monovalent minerals (Na+, K+), optimizing mineral equilibrium for drinking water and boiler feed pretreatment.
2. Low Operating Pressure & Lower Energy Costs
Operating at substantially lower hydraulic pressures than traditional RO elements, JOZZON water softening NF membranes dramatically reduce high-pressure pump energy consumption, lowering overall plant operational expenditure (OPEX) while maintaining high volume yield.
3. Gentle, Non-Thermal Separation Process
The nanofiltration separation process involves no chemical additives, thermal energy, or phase transitions. It safeguards heat-sensitive compounds and biological activity, making it ideal for continuous concentration, separation, and purification in food, beverage, and biopharmaceutical production lines.
4. Eco-Friendly & Green Operation
Eliminating the need for continuous chemical addition during normal filtration, this green separation process produces no secondary sludge, meeting strict environmental compliance and zero liquid discharge (ZLD) sustainability goals.
