Membrane Filtration
• Membranes
– Poly material
– Layered to generate
surface area
– Very small filtration
levels
– pH specific on most
– Susceptible to
clogging
– Maintenance intensive

What is oxidation?
• Simply put: The adding of an oxygen
atom
• You are changing the composition of a
molecule in order to change how it
behaves

Ozone
• The energy stored to create ozone
wants to react by forcing the extra
oxygen atom on an organic molecule
• The resulting reaction is CO2 + H2O

Thermo Oxidation
• Thermally destroy
organic
compounds
• Evaporation
process that
completely
removes the water
from the solids.

Evaporation
• Reduce water from
stream
• Reduction of
volume for cost
savings
• Natural or man
made
