Reverse Osmosis

Highly efficient membrane technology systems for reverse osmosis, microfiltration, and ultrafiltration.

Application

Enhancing Reverse Osmosis Systems for Optimal Efficiency

Membrane technology, essential for reverse osmosis systems, utilizes selective porosity to remove impurities from pressurized liquids. This chemical-free process is energy-efficient and easy to handle, making it ideal for producing potable and process water from surface or sea water. GF Piping Systems enhance these systems with leak-tight jointing technologies like cementing and electro fusion, ensuring safety and reliability. The PRO-FIT design allows for compact, efficient skids, reducing maintenance and extending the system’s life cycle to 25 years. Additionally, the Process Automation portfolio of valves, actuation, and measurement instrumentation provide full-system support.
