Ceramic Membranes
High-strength silicon carbide membranes engineered for durability, precision, and longevity.
Overview
Century Water’s Ceramic Membrane Technology, built around the MOISANITE™ silicon carbide (SiC) platform, delivers unmatched performance for filtration and pretreatment in industrial and municipal water systems. These membranes combine extreme durability, chemical stability, and flux performance to deliver superior water quality under challenging operating conditions.
With a lifespan many times longer than polymeric membranes, MOISANITE™ systems are ideal for facilities demanding reliability, consistent effluent quality, and reduced lifecycle costs.
Advantages of
Ceramic Membrane
Exceptional Durability
Withstands high temperatures (up to 800°C) and aggressive chemical environments.
Superior Filtration Precision
0.05 µm nominal pore size removes colloids, bacteria, and suspended solids.
High Flux and Hydrophilicity
Large pore volume ensures high throughput and low fouling.
Easy Regeneration
Resistant to aggressive chemical and physical cleaning for longer lifespan.
Reliable Turbidity Removal
Achieves < 0.2 NTU filtrate quality consistently.
Applications
- Semiconductor and precision manufacturing
- Pharmaceutical and biotech water systems
- Pretreatment for RO and EDR plants
- Industrial wastewater treatment and reclaim
- Food & beverage clarification and sterilization
Core Operations Benefits
Compared to polymeric UF membranes:
- 3–5x longer service life
- Low operating pressure (0.1–0.2 MPa)
- Stable flux even under high solids load
- Lower cleaning frequency and chemical use
