Water treatment: Arkema and Polymem join forces to market a new ultrafiltration membrane technology

19-May-2014 - France

Arkema and Polymem have jointly developed a new ultrafiltration hydrophilic membrane technology to produce high quality water over the long term.

This ultrafiltration technology using membranes manufactured by Polymem from a nanostructured Kynar® PVDF polymer developed by Arkema, makes the treatment of water using membranes more effective and less energy-intensive. The aim of the partnership is both to speed up the commercial development of this ultrafiltration membrane technology boasting durable hydrophilic properties, and to make it accessible to other water treatment players without delay. This technology has been proven by an ultrafiltration demonstrator manufactured by Polymem.
