Petro Sep Membrane Technologies Inc.

CA

Petro Sep Membrane Technologies provides Innovative Membrane Solutions for Complex Separation Problems. Our facilities contain some of the most advanced laboratories and membrane manufacturing equipment in the world. Our Research & Development Group has diverse backgrounds in polymer and membrane science, process engineering, plant design and operation, and waste treatment.

We offer a wide range of products and services including:

Technical assistance, consultation and feasibility studies in solving challenging fluid separation problems.

In-house facilities to develop and manufacture membranes for a variety of fluid separation applications optimizing chemical processes in the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and wastewater treatment industries.

EPCM (engineer, procure, construction management) contractor for membrane based fluid separation systems. Our turnkey plants utilize various membrane technologies including pervaporation, vapor permeation, reverse osmosis, and ultrafiltration.

From bench scale to plant scale, we can produce a custom- designed unit to meet your exact plant needs.

AZEO-SEP (TM) is a separation process based on pervaporation to purify various liquid mixtures by partial vaporization through a non-porous membrane.

Some applications of Azeo-Sep (TM)are:

SEPARATION OF AZEOTROPIC MIXTURES. INCREASING DISTILLATION COLUMN EFFICIENCY FOR LOW VOLATILITY FEED. SOLVENT RECOVERY IN CHEMICAL AND PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES.

VOC-SEP (TM) Systems utilize a membrane-based separation process for extracting low concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from water by partial vaporization through a micro-porous membrane.

VOC-Sep (TM) Membrane systems are used for:

RECOVERY OF HIGH-VALUE SOLVENTS ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE. REMOVAL OF HYDROCARBONS, MTBE AND BTEX FROM CONTAMINATED WATER USED BY AUTOMOTIVE, CHEMICAL, ELECTRONIC, PETROLEUM AND PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES

RO-SEP (TM) Reverse osmosis is a proven method for reducing the total dissolved solids of water, including the desalination of brackish and seawaters. It can also be used to treat some wastewaters.

Reverse osmosis has found wide applications in the areas of:

BOILER FEEDWATER TREATMENT. SEAWATER DESALINATION ULTRAPURE WATER. USED BY PHARMACEUTICAL AND BIOTECHNOLOGY COMPANIES

UF-SEP (TM) Hollow fiber ultrafiltration uses a semi-porous membrane that permits the passage of water. Particles that are larger than the pore diameter are unable to pass through the membrane, and are concentrated for further processing or disposal.

Ultrafiltration is used in the following industries:

POTABLE WATER PRODUCTION FOOD AND BEVERAGE PHARMACEUTICAL TEXTILE

c. Significant competitive features/advantages of products

PERVAPORATION PURIFYING/RECYCLING REDUCES RAW MATERIAL COSTS. OTHER METHODS REQUIRE HIGHER ENERGY AND REQUIRE CHEMICALS THAT MUST BE LATER DESTROYED. REMOVING VOCS FROM WASTEWATER PROTECTS THE ENVIRONMENT, PREVENTS DAMAGE TO WATER TREATMENT PLANTS. REUSING VOCS BACK IN THE PROCESS REDUCES COSTS PERVAPORATION AND VACUUM DISTILLATION SYSTEMS ARE EASY TO USE AND REQUIRE LITTLE LABOR OR MAINTENANCE

-Recovery of Fusel Oils (active, iso-amyl, and tert amyl alcohol) from grain ethanol production. -Removal of MTBE from contaminated water. -Removal of BTEX from contaminated water. -Recycling of waste solvents for fuel addition. -Refining of distilled solvents to anhydrous (dry) state for use in semiconductor rinse. -Refining of distilled solvents to anhydrous (dry) state for use in printing press rinse. -Refining of distilled solvents to anhydrous (dry) state for use in bio tech and pharmaceutical extraction. -Separation of aliphatic and aromatic solvent mixtures by prevaporation. -Removal of arsenic from contaminated water. -Removal of VOC's from contaminated water. -Optimizing esterification reactions by continuous dehydration resulting in 5-fold increase in productivity. Optimizing trans-esterification reactions by continuous dehydration resulting in product yield increase and decreased production time.
