PPG introduced an ultrafiltration (UF) antifouling membrane for industrial water purification and treatment to its portfolio of spiral-wound filter elements. The new UF membrane features a super-hydrophobic (water-repelling) surface that resists fouling from trace amounts of oil, grease and other tough-to-remove contaminants.PPG said its membrane portfolio is produced using a proprietary composite material that does not contain intentionally added polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Applications include offshore and onshore oil-water separation, bilge water treatment, industrial process water and wastewater, automotive and industrial paint lines and graywater treatment.
