Membrane water treatment hall with stainless steel reverse osmosis skids
Industrial membrane separation

Membrane water treatment plants engineered to a guaranteed permeate spec

Reverse osmosis, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and EDI trains built to order — from 2 m³/h polishing skids to 200 m³/h seawater desalination halls. Every train is projected, witness-tested and delivered with its own performance envelope.

Six membrane processes, one process desk

Each train is projected in-house against your feed analysis before a single vessel is cut. We do not resell a catalogue — we size the array, pick the element and stand behind the permeate number.

01

Reverse osmosis

Brackish and seawater trains from 2 to 200 m³/h, tapered two-stage arrays, isobaric energy recovery on high-salinity duties.

99.75 % rejection 42–85 % recovery 13–24 LMH
02

Ultrafiltration

Outside-in PVDF hollow fibre on fixed-flux control. The stage that decides whether the RO downstream reaches its warranty life.

0.03 µm SDI15 < 3.0 Air-scour CEB
03

Nanofiltration

Selective softening and colour removal where full demineralisation would be an expensive over-treatment.

> 97 % divalent 55–75 % recovery 6–14 bar
04

Electrodeionization

Continuous chemical-free polishing to 18.2 MΩ·cm for microelectronics, pharmaceutical and power station duties.

0.055 µS/cm No regenerant 90–95 % recovery
05

Water reuse

MBR and tertiary RO trains that take a treated effluent back to process-grade water instead of to the outfall.

MBR + RO < 5 mg/L BOD 75–85 % reuse
06

Seawater desalination

Full desalination halls with pressure-exchanger energy recovery, boron control and remineralisation.

2.6 kWh/m³ 45 % recovery < 0.5 mg/L boron
Why work with us

Engineered, built and supported in-house

One team carries your project from the first enquiry to years of reliable operation — nothing is handed off, and nothing gets lost between departments.

01

Designed around your requirement

Every system starts from what you actually need — your water, your duty, your site — not from a fixed catalogue configuration.

02

Built and tested before it ships

Each unit is assembled and fully tested in our own workshop, so commissioning on site holds no surprises.

03

Supported after handover

Operator training, spare parts and engineering support from the same people who designed the system.

Equipment catalogue

Standard trains, project-specific arrays

Every model below is a real starting configuration with a published envelope. The array is then re-projected for your water.

Bench-scale membrane crossflow test rig in the Clearflow process laboratory
96 h Standard crossflow trial before a difficult water is quoted
Process engineering

We project the water before we quote the steel

A membrane plant is only as good as the assumptions behind its projection. Clearflow runs every enquiry through a full ionic balance, a scaling index check and — where the water is unusual — a bench-scale crossflow trial on the actual sample before a price is issued.

  • Full ionic balance and charge-balance check on the supplied analysis
  • LSI, S&DSI and sulphate saturation screening at design recovery
  • Element-by-element flux and concentrate velocity profile
  • Antiscalant selection and dose modelled at worst-case temperature
  • Specific energy calculated with and without energy recovery
  • Witnessed factory acceptance test on clean water before despatch
From enquiry to handover

A predictable delivery route

Four gates, each with a document you actually receive — not a milestone chart you never see again.

01

Water analysis review

You send a full analysis and a duty. We return a charge-balanced review, the scaling risks and the recovery ceiling your water will physically support.

02

Projection and proposal

A projected array with element-by-element flux, a specific-energy figure, a P&ID and a priced scope. Two working days on standard duties.

03

Fabrication and FAT

Skid built in our assembly bay, wetted parts certified, then a witnessed clean-water factory acceptance test against the projection.

04

Commissioning and care

Site installation supervision, membrane wet-up, performance verification at contract conditions, then a normalised performance monitoring plan.

Technical notes

From the process desk

Request a proposal

Send us the feed water analysis

Give us a TDS profile, a target permeate spec and a duty flow. Our process desk returns a projected array, a specific-energy figure and a budget envelope — normally inside two working days.

Tell us about the duty

Duty flow, feed water analysis and the permeate specification you have to hit. Attach the analysis if you have one.
