Visão geral

ZeeWeed 1500 UF Membrane

A ZeeWeed 1500 é uma membrana de ultrafiltração de fibra oca para alimentação externa. Our proprietary Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) membrane is strong, fouling-resistant and easy to clean. ZeeWeed 1500 membrane will consistently deliver the highest quality effluent water.

Benefícios do ZeeWeed 1500

High solids tolerance: hollow-fibre outside-in feed membrane is ideal for treating waters with high solid concentrations
Resilient: handles feed water turbidity spikes, variations in water quality and coagulant use
Versatile: ability to retrofit other ultrafiltration and microfiltration systems
Simple: easy to install, easy to operate, easy to maintain
Customizable: the same module works as a standalone unit in a rack or in our integrated header solution, ZW1500-RMS

ZeeWeed 700B UF Membrane

ZeeWeed 700B is an inside-out SevenBore membrane, ideal for low solids and seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) pre-treatment applications.

ZeeWeed 700B is a versatile product that can easily retrofit other ultrafiltration and microfiltration systems. Essa membrana exclusiva contribui para a redução dos custos operacionais e de ciclo de vida ao diminuir as despesas com energia, manutenção, produtos químicos e substituições quando comparados com opções de UF pressurizadas convencionais de um orifício.

Benefícios da ZeeWeed 700B

Trusted Performance: Over 1200 MLD operating worldwide since 2005. Trusted at the world's largest wastewater tertiary membrane filtration plant.
Value: Cost-effective membranes with expert support and know-how to meet plant treatment goals.
Speed: World's largest hollow fiber producer ensures fast, global delivery to meet specific timelines.
Simplicity: Modules designed to fit directly into the existing system with no changes to connections, process parameters or controls logic.

Rackless Module System (RMS)

The ZeeWeed 1500 and ZeeWeed 700B membranes are part of the innovative Veolia RMS family of products, available for both of our pressurized ultrafiltration membranes. O RMS Veolia é um sistema de cabeçotes integrado simples e econômico que não precisa de rack.

Benefits of Rackless Module System:

Simples: os kits de RMS pré-montados em fábrica tornam a instalação rápida e fácil
Baixo custo: 75% menos do que um rack normal
Modular: personalize o layout da planta usando kits padrão pré-montados e adicione novos módulos ZeeWeed 1500 a qualquer momento sem necessidade de construir um novo espaço de rack para expansão futura
Otimize a área ocupada: redução de 50% na área ocupada em comparação com a instalação de módulos em rack
Layouts personalizados: construa o RMS em configurações de 2 ou 4 de largura com uma ou duas ramificações. São muitas possibilidades

Como funciona

Water often contains particles, bacteria, and viruses that make it unsafe for drinking and unsuitable for industrial use. ZeeWeed pressurized ultrafiltration membranes remove these contaminants while maintaining essential water minerals.

In outside-in filtration, pressurized water enters the bottom of the module and passes through the membrane fibers from the outside. In inside-out filtration, water flows through the center of the fibers and is filtered through the membrane walls. Both designs act like very fine filters, allowing only clean water to pass while blocking unwanted particles and microorganisms.

The most advanced water treatment flow sheets require high quality water, free from suspended solids and micro-organisms. ZeeWeed pressurized ultrafiltration membranes provide the ideal water quality that increases effectiveness other technologies like Ozone, activated carbon, RO and NF membrane filtration.

Knox Chapman First to Install the ZeeWeed 1500 RMS Product Line: Baixe o estudo de caso completo

Knox Chapman Utility District (KCUD) near Knoxville, TN serves 60 square miles providing water services. They use Veolia's ZeeWeed 1500 UF membranes to treat water from the French Broad River. In 2016, KCUD expanded capacity by implementing Veolia's new ZW1500 RMS system, which offers a smaller footprint and simpler design while maintaining high water quality.
Plant Upgrades for Pathogen Protection, Turbidity Reduction: Baixe o estudo de caso completo

The Regional Municipality of Macdonald upgraded its Sanford Water Treatment Facility using Veolia's integrated membrane solutions. They implemented ZeeWeed 1500 Ultrafiltration membrane and MUNI Low Energy Reverse Osmosis systems to improve water quality, increase capacity, and enhance pathogen protection. The pre-engineered, skid-mounted systems allowed for quick installation while keeping the existing facility operational during construction.
Reclaimed Water Reused in Manufacturing Processes: Baixe o estudo de caso completo

Taiwan's Water Resources Agency tested wastewater recycling at Nantze Export Processing Zone using Veolia's ZeeWeed ultrafiltration technologies (ZW500 and ZW1500). The project aimed to produce 10,000 cubic meters of water daily for manufacturing. The plant successfully achieved high water quality standards with lower operational costs, demonstrating a model for industrial water recycling worldwide.
Veolia UF and RO Membranes Support World’s Largest Membrane- Based Water Reuse Project in Kuwait: Baixe o estudo de caso completo

Kuwait addressed water scarcity by developing the Sulaibiya Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation Plant in 2005, the world's largest membrane-based water reclamation facility. Initially processing 100 MGD, the plant was expanded in 2009 and is undergoing further expansion to reach 160 MGD capacity.
