The new asymmetric Hybrid Technology Membrane (HTM) combines the desired properties from silicon carbide (SiC) and zirconia (ZrO2) ceramics.

Our Hybrid Technology Membrane (HTM) is our newest asymmetric ceramic membrane with a pore size of 60 nanometers (nm) suitable for ultrafiltration (UF) technologies. Our HTM represents a patented membrane filtration technology, which can purify and clean water and liquids at an extremely pure level. It is a unique hybrid solution, which combines the best of two worlds – respectively, the best of competing oxide membrane technologies and our commercial silicon carbide (SiC) membrane technology. By combining silicon carbide and zirconia (ZrO₂), our hybrid technology membrane obtains unique and ground-breaking properties. This ground-breaking membrane technology facilitates new separation processes and new filtration applications.
Both silicon carbide and oxide zirconia are chemically resistant in all pH-values from 0-14, making the hybrid technology membrane capable of working with all sorts of liquids. The HTM membrane has a long lifetime and can be used in harsh conditions without diminishing membrane performance.
Our hybrid technology membranes are produced in customized geometries, making them adaptable to your specific filtration needs.

The World of Silicon Carbide

Superior properties for our ceramic silicon carbide membrane.

The carrier of the Hybrid Technology Membrane consists of 100 % silicon carbide (SiC). Being one of the hardest materials in the world, this provides high durability, strong and unbreakable support, as well as unmatched mechanical robustness.
Furthermore, silicon carbide provides both the highest flux, high permeability, and a high level of hydrophilicity (water-loving material). Additionally, silicon carbide enables corrosion resistance, which conventional oxide supports lack.

The World of Zirconia

Very well-defined selectivity with zirconia ceramics.

The Hybrid Technology Membrane coating layer consists of monoclinic zirconia (ZrO₂). This provides a very well-defined selectivity in the ultrafiltration (UF) range. Zirconia adds mechanical strength and a dense active layer, which improves the filtration process by delivering a more exhaustive process as the sharp profile increases the selectivity towards targeted components, thus higher quality of the treated liquid. This can provide significant advantages in industries, which utilize filtration applications where durability and dense pore sizes are critical. Moreover, the lowered pore sizes deliver robustness of the filtration process by reduced pore plugging and fouling and a reduced need for membrane cleaning.
