bioreactor resue projects. he ZeeWeed 500 membrane offers outstanding performance and
proven best-in-class product life.

The ZeeWeed 700B series is a set of products using PES SevenBore fiber technology for
high mechanical strength and ability to operate in a wide range of pHs. Typical applications include
RO pretreatment, industrial process water, food & beverage applications and RO pretreatment.

The ZeeWeed 1000 ultrafiltration membrane system is ideal for retrofits and large plants.
It is applicable in direct filtration, coagulation, tertiary filtration, multi-media filter retrofits,
and RO pretreatment.

The ZeeWeed 1500 membrane is ideal for drinking water treatment, tertiary filtration and
pretreatment applications for brackish and desalination. It is optimal for packaged plants
with quick delivery and installation, and is also available as a custom solution engineered
to specifications.

The G-Series family of thin film ultrafiltration membrane elements has a range of
molecular weight cutoffs from 1,000–3,500 and a smooth, fouling resistant membrane
surface. G-Series Elements are used for surface water pretreatment, color/TOC reduction,
and chemical purification.
The M-Series Ultrafillic* membranes are made of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) polymer. To avoid
fouling by oils, the MW series elements have been engineered to be extremely hydrophilic
(water attracting) as compared to conventional membranes that are oleophilic (oil attracting).
MW Elements are used for oil/water separation and suspended solids removal.
The P-Series family of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membrane elements are used for
pretreatment of process water, post treatment of ultrapure water and for the removal of organics.
The J-Series family of PVDF microfiltration membranes are low fouling in oil, and are used
for removal of fat and colloidal impurities in dairy, industrial, or wine applications.

Ion Exchange Membranes ion exchange membranes

ion exchange membranes


SUEZ manufactures robust and efficient homogeneous ion
exchange membranes, which are used in electrodialysis (ED/
EDR) and electrodeionization (EDI) processes. EDR is used for
desalination of brackish waters and ED for demineralization
of a wide variety of industrial process streams. EDI produces
ultrapure water for the semiconductor and power industries.
SUEZ’s ion exchange membranes are ion selective membranes
comprised of cross-linked copolymers of vinyl monomers and
containing quaternary ammonium anion exchange groups or
sulfonic acid cation exchange groups. The membranes are
homogeneous ion exchange films, cast in sheet form on a
support structure. The prefix AR designates anion selective
membranes and CR designates cation selective membranes. BP
indicates a bipolar ion exchange membrane which contains both
an anion-selective surface and a cation-selective surface and
is used to adjust pH of process streams or to produce acid and
caustic directly from a saline feed source.

industry’s highest quality and most reliable brine concentrators, evaporators, and crystallizers. SUEZ provides its thermal
pretreatment systems for a wide range of tough-to-treat wastewater and designs its systems for longevity and high on-stream availability.

SUEZ leverages all of its non-thermal technologies to pretreat and pre-concentrate typically these technologies can concentrate up to:
waste streams upfront of its brine concentrators and crystallizers. Pretreatment
technologies include: primary treatment, ultrafiltration, nano-filtration, reverse
osmosis, electro-deionization.

brine concentrators and evaporators

SUEZ brine concentrators and evaporators can recover up to 95% of industrial


wastewater as high purity distillate. This can be used for boiler makeup, Nox
control, cooling tower makeup and process use. The remaining five percent is a
slurry concentrate that may be sent to a small solar pond, reduced to dry solids in a
crystallizer or spray dryer, or used for ash wetting.

crystallizers

Meeting stringent zero-liquid-discharge requirements also requires a crystallizer,


to reduce brine concentrate to a dry solid. Recovered water can be recycled back to
plant processes, while an easy-to-handle dry solid can be safely disposed of in an
approved landfill. SUEZ specializes in forced circulation and calandria crystallizers

E-Cell GEMK3 pre-engineered systems

electrodeionization (EDI) systems


With the combination of E-Cell* and Ionics* EDI technology, SUEZ is leading the way for
Electrodeionization (EDI). Our E-Cell Standard Systems with MK-3 stacks are designed
for reliable, long term trouble free operation, with straight forward control.

key advantages of EDI:


• MK-3 E-Cell stacks allow for a simplified system design, removing the need for
concentrate re- circulation as well as brine injection.
• MK-3 E-Cell stack’s low energy design reduces electrical requirements and operating costs.
• Concentrate flow is in the opposite direction to the dilute flow, thus allowing systems to
operate at higher hardness concentrations for longer periods of time.

microelectronics UPW solutions Ultrapure water

Ultrapure water Ultrapure water solutions for


the microelectronics industry
Microelectronics (semiconductor, flat-panel displays,
Microelectronics UPW Solutions photovoltaic solar cell manufacturing, and others) has the
most demanding water purity requirements of any industry
Ultrapure Water Systems worldwide. The production of microelectronic devices
requires extensive purification of water for their rinsing
RO/High pH Reverse Osmosis during their various manufacturing processes. Impurities
in the water, such as dissolved minerals and metals,
UPW particles, gases, and organics (TOC), become potential
device contaminants affecting their reliability and fab
yield. Essentially all measurable water impurities must be
removed. Boron, silica and other dissolved metals must be
removed to ppt levels; TOC and dissolved oxygen (DO) to ppb
levels; and particles to less than 0.05 microns in size. As
microelectronics devices become increasingly smaller, the
drive to produce water with ever lower levels of impurities
is the industry’s major challenge.
