KPAK™ ULTRAFILTER EQUIPMENT IMPROVES PLANT EFFICIENCY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE
The UF System is used for paint recovery, paint bath control, and hazardous waste minimization at the plant's new electrocoat/phosphate facility. The KPAK modules increase the capacity of the electrocoat paint system by about 68 percent. The KPAK UF system completely replaces the plant's existing ultrafiltration system and offers increased energy efficiency, provisions to allow 100 percent of flow over the membrane surface, superior cleanability of the UF modules, and a safe, easy installation. Also, the KPAK UF system's efficient operations allow paint recovery to be maintained at more than 95 percent within the closed-loop rinse system, thus reducing wastewater treatment plant load, ultimate disposal costs, and environmental impacts.

ACE '09 EXPO, AWWA'S ANNUAL CONFERENCE & EXPOSITION, JUNE 14-17, 2009; SAN DIEGO CONVENTION CTR - BOOTH 1313
The MegaMagnum RO and NF systems utilize the world's highest area spiral-wound membrane elements to significantly reduce the complexity, footprint, and installation time of municipal and industrial water treatment systems. MegaMagnum systems offer an ideal solution for a variety of large-scale industrial and municipal RO and NF applications, such as brackish water desalination, removal of inorganic contaminates (such as nitrates, arsenic and radium), softening, organic removal, water reuse, high-quality process water production and wastewater recycling. The 1500-square meter PURON module is designed for MBR applications and features greater membrane packing density, lower energy costs for aeration, and simplified installation while providing even greater compatability with other commercially available systems.
