Titania Flat Sheet Ceramic Membrane

Titania Flat Sheet Ceramic Membranes are manufactured from high-purity titanium dioxide (TiO₂) ceramic materials using a precision high-temperature sintering process. Featuring an asymmetric membrane structure with a porous support layer, transition layer, and separation layer, these membranes combine excellent mechanical strength with superior hydrophilicity and anti-fouling performance.

Compared with conventional alumina ceramic membranes, TiO₂ membranes exhibit enhanced surface wettability, allowing water to spread rapidly across the membrane surface while reducing the adhesion of organic contaminants. This unique property makes them particularly suitable for applications involving oily wastewater, emulsified liquids, biological process streams, and industrial wastewater containing high concentrations of organic matter.

Designed for both microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF), Titania Flat Sheet Ceramic Membranes are widely used in ceramic membrane bioreactors (CMBR), municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, water reuse systems, food processing, pharmaceutical production, and chemical separation processes.

With excellent chemical resistance, long service life, and outstanding cleaning performance, TiO₂ ceramic membranes provide a reliable alternative to conventional polymeric flat sheet membranes in demanding industrial environments.

Titanium dioxide naturally exhibits excellent hydrophilic properties, allowing water to penetrate the membrane surface quickly while minimizing the accumulation of hydrophobic pollutants. This contributes to higher and more stable filtration flux throughout long-term operation.

The optimized membrane surface significantly reduces contaminant adhesion, making it highly effective for treating:

• Oily wastewater
• Emulsified liquids
• Biological wastewater
• Organic-rich industrial effluents
• Food processing wastewater

Lower fouling results in longer filtration cycles and reduced cleaning frequency.

TiO₂ ceramic membranes demonstrate excellent resistance to aggressive cleaning chemicals and harsh process environments.

Suitable for exposure to:

• Strong acids
• Strong alkalis
• Oxidizing agents
• Industrial cleaning chemicals

The membrane maintains stable performance even after repeated chemical cleaning.

The fully inorganic ceramic structure provides exceptional mechanical stability and resists deformation under continuous operation.

Benefits include:

• Excellent pressure resistance
• High impact resistance
• Reliable backwashing performance
• Stable operation under fluctuating hydraulic conditions

Unlike polymer membranes that gradually age or degrade, TiO₂ ceramic membranes maintain stable filtration performance over many years.

Typical advantages include:

• Reduced membrane replacement frequency
• Lower maintenance costs
• Stable long-term filtration efficiency
• Lower total lifecycle cost

Titania ceramic membranes are compatible with various physical and chemical cleaning methods, including:

• Water flushing
• Air scouring
• Backwashing
• Acid cleaning
• Alkali cleaning
• Oxidant cleaning

These cleaning methods effectively restore membrane permeability while extending service life.
