    KMS' PURON® modules easily replace older membrane technology while improving performance through increased capacity and lower energy consumption.
  • Membrane Technology for the Chemicals Industry
    KMS examines how membrane technology is rapidly replacing conventional methods to concentrate and recover materials from process streams.

    Industrial & Life Science Solutions
  • Amino Acid Production
    Crossflow microfiltration using KMS spiral wound elements can increase amino acid yields and reduce operating expenses.
  • Industrial Biotech
    Microfiltration, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis products provide the specific membrane technology required to achieve optimum yields for a wide variety of biofermentation processes.
  • Biofuel Production
    Membrane filtration technologies are proving to be effective ways to achieve optimum yields and reduce energy costs for biofuels production.
  • Lees Treatment
    KMS crossflow membrane filtration systems for recovery of wine from lees have been used successfully by producers of both red and white wines.
  • Membrane Cleaning
    KMS can design the most effective cleaning program or pre-treatment procedure for your system.
  • Reverse Osmosis for Electrocoat Paincess Applications
    Reverse osmosis can be used to remove low molecular weight resin and dissolved salts from electrocoat paint ultrafiltrate, thereby reducing the consumption of deionized water, and generating less wastewater.
  • Recovery of Caustic and Acids in the Dairy Industry
    KMS membranes can help recover expensive acid and caustic from clean-in-place (CIP) streams, and comply with increasingly stringent regulatory requirements.
  • An Overview of Membrane Theory and Technology
    KMS offers a thorough evaluation of crossflow membrane technology, terminology, and applications. Key factors to consider when designing a crossflow filtration system and which configurations are best suited to specific process needs are discussed.
