Ultra filtration (APUF) System

General Discription

Aquatech Plus Ultrafiltration (APUF) systems offer a high-efficiency membrane filtration process that removes suspended solids, turbidity, bacteria, and most viruses—outperforming conventional multimedia filters.

Designed with an outside-in flow configuration, our APUF systems handle higher solids, reduce fouling, and allow easy cleaning. They eliminate the need for clarifiers and media filters, simplifying water treatment setups.

We provide both standard and customized APUF systems, engineered with advanced 3D design tools to suit a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
