AquaVoda are proud to be the exclusive agent for the Cembrane technology for Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific.
With over 260 installations globally, Cembrane Silicon Carbide membranes are changing the landscape when it comes to potable, wastewater and process applications. With plants ranging from a few thousand litres a day to plants of over 100 MLD, Cembrane is rapidly becoming the membrane of choice.
Whether the source is groundwater, surface water or seawater, Cembrane carries full NSF certification, giving you complete confidence that the water quality produced will meet your health-based targets. Comprehensive, independent LRV test certificates are available on request.
Whether recycling washwater from a mine, recycling treated effluent for irrigation, or recovering abattoir wastewater for cleaning down surfaces, these robust membranes operate at extremely high recovery rates, allowing you to turn a waste stream into a valuable resource.
Water is far too precious to waste and Cembrane systems are being deployed across the World for recovery of backwash water from media filters, carbon filters, greensand media filters and others. Often recovering over 90% of the backwash water that would otherwise go to waste, these membranes can boost overall plant recovery to over 99%.
Used in conjunction with powdered activated carbon (PAC), these membranes can reduce PFAS to non-detectable levels whilst also removing harmful microorganisms in a single step. The unique combination of SiC membranes and PAC produces an extremely small volume of concentrated waste material, drastically reducing opex and environmental footprint.
Filtering down to 0.1 micron, these membranes produce a permeate with extremely low SDI values, protecting your RO membranes from particulate and biological fouling. Well protected RO membranes last longer and perform better, saving you significant opex and reducing plant downtime.
Silicon Carbide is an extremely robust material and is not prone to failure with high chemical contact. By strongly oxidising the feed with KMnO4, Chlorine or Ozone, Iron and Manganese can be oxidised ahead of the membrane with the oxidised material being removed completely from the feed stream.
Made from Silicon Carbide (SiC), the toughest membrane material in the World. Extreme chemical compatibility across the full pH range.
Long membrane life, low power consumption and low fouling, these membranes offer the lowest TCO of any membrane on the market.
Often operating above 98% recovery, Cembrane membranes allow you to recover the maximum amount of feedwater possible, and reduce your waste stream at the same time.
At 0.02 - 0.03 kWh/m3 of water treated, Cembrane membranes run at a fraction of the rate when compared to other available membranes, polymeric or ceramic.
Silicon Carbide is an extremely low-fouling material. Low fouling means fewer cleans, reducing opex and reducing operator interaction with chemicals.
Producing safe water with high LRV's for pathogens is only part of the story. The modular design of the Cembrane technology reduces on site installation and maintenance hours.
Silicon Carbide is extremely hydrophyllic, meaning we can run at extreme flux rates up to 1,000 LMH. High flux rates and the modular design reduces footprint, saving space, saving civils and reducing capex.
Disposing of PVDF membranes is becoming a serious issues with many states looking to ban the disposal of PVDF into landfill. Silicon Carbide is a natural material and can be disposed of without any long term risk.
