Spiral Wound Membranes Features

Enhance Product Yields, Ensure Consistency and Quality

FG-SpiraCore™ membrane elements come in various configurations, featuring different membrane types, spacers, and sizes, making them perfect for a wide range of applications. With an incredibly high packing density, they outperform plate and frame, tubular, and capillary configurations. Cleaning is a breeze with the convenient cleaning in place (CIP) method.

Advantages:

✓ Covers all applications

✓ Perfect replacement of your current supplier

✓ Quick leadtimes

✓ Approved to FDA 21 CFR 177.2550 and EU directive 10/2011 for food contact

✓ Conform to 3-A Sanitary Standards

✓ Certified to BS 6920:2014 for safe use in water intended for human consumption

PCI Membranes Spiral Wound Membrane Elements

Sanitary, Food & Beverage Membranes

For processors dealing with dairy and protein-based, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical products, as well as with other process streams, our sanitary membrane elements stand out as the stronger choice. Our top-of-the-line reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, microfiltration, and ultrafiltration membranes meet the stringent 3-A Sanitary Standards, ensuring superior performance and safety.

Drinking Water Membranes

Our UF and NF spiral-wound membrane elements are the ideal choice for various drinking water treatment applications requiring BS approval (currently, pending DWI approval).

Wastewater Membranes

Thanks to the wide range of membrane types and spacer thickness, PCI’s spiral-wound membrane elements are the ideal choice in case of organically-loaded effluents.

Our FG-SpiraCore™ I-NF-1K-Dura product line is designed to ensure a certain degree of chlorine tolerance, enabling its use even in case of applications with low to average biofouling potential.

Water Treatment

After two generations of improvement, reverse osmosis membrane technology has become the main treatment technology in waterworks. RO membranes can intercept almost everything in the water, including bacteria, viruses, algae, organic matter, heavy metals and antibiotics. 

Advantages

  • Selective separation: FG-SpiraCore Dura can effectively remove endocrine disruptors, antibiotics, disinfection by-prodyct precursers and trace organic pollutants in water, and can retain some minerals
  • High recovery rate: The single-stage recovery is up to 90% and the system recovery is up to 98%, which is more than 15% higher than the traditional RO membrane
  • Low operating pressure: The operating pressure is 0.3-0.7 MPa, more than 30% lower than the traditional RO membrane – subject to specific application.

Apple Juice

Typical Applications

Concentration of clarified apple juice

  • The selected spiral RO membrane can be used to concentrate the juice product to a final range of 20o – 25oBrix (application and membrane type specific).
  • Thus enabling the recovery of valuable and reusable process water to improve production sustainability.
  • Helping to reduce the system energy consumption prior to further concentration of the juice with an evaporator.
  • Juice concentration with a membrane system also helps to eliminate/minimise variation and/or damages to the organoleptic properties of the juice, as would otherwise occur with other technologies.
