3600 Tons/Day Ultrafiltration Water Treatment System


The 3600 tons/day ultrafiltration water treatment system is a large-capacity industrial membrane filtration plant with an average output of approximately 150m³/h based on 24-hour operation.

Using hollow-fiber UF membranes, the system reduces suspended solids, turbidity, colloids, bacteria and high-molecular-weight organic matter. It is suitable for RO pretreatment, municipal water purification, industrial process water and tertiary wastewater reuse.

Product Description

1. Product Name and Capacity

Item Typical Specification
Product name 3600 Tons/Day Industrial Ultrafiltration Water Treatment System
Daily capacity 3600m³/day
Average hourly capacity 150m³/h based on 24-hour operation
Typical operating range 140–160m³/h
Membrane technology Hollow-fiber ultrafiltration
Operation mode Automatic continuous operation
Installation Modular skid-mounted or containerized

The required gross filtration capacity may be higher than 150m³/h because backwashing, chemical cleaning and downtime reduce net daily production.

 

2. Applicable Raw Water

This 150m³/h industrial UF water treatment plant can be designed for:

  •  • River, lake and reservoir water
  •  • Municipal source water
  •  • Well water and groundwater
  •  • High-turbidity surface water
  •  • Industrial circulating cooling water
  •  • Biologically treated wastewater
  •  • RO system feed water
  •  • Industrial process-water pretreatment
  •  
Raw-Water Problem Recommended Pretreatment
High turbidity Coagulation and clarification
Large suspended solids Screening and multimedia filtration
Algae and microorganisms Pretreatment disinfection
Organic matter Coagulation or activated carbon
Iron and manganese Oxidation and removal filtration
Oil and grease Oil separation or flotation
High COD Biological or advanced treatment

UF does not remove dissolved salts. Reverse osmosis is required when lower TDS or conductivity is needed.

 

3. Typical Product-Water Quality

Parameter Typical Design Target
Turbidity Typically ≤0.1 NTU
SDI Suitable for downstream RO design
Suspended solids Significantly reduced
Colloids Effectively retained
Bacteria Substantially reduced
Dissolved salts Not removed
Product-water use RO pretreatment, process water or further purification

Actual outlet quality depends on feed-water conditions, membrane selection and operating parameters. Drinking-water applications require final disinfection and compliance testing.

 

4. Typical Treatment Process

Surface-Water Treatment

Raw Water → Screening → Coagulation/Flocculation → Clarification → Multimedia Filter → Ultrafiltration System → UF Product-Water Tank

RO Pretreatment

Raw Water → Pretreatment → Ultrafiltration System → UF Product-Water Tank → Cartridge Filter → RO System

Wastewater Reuse

Biologically Treated Wastewater → Clarification → Multimedia Filter → Ultrafiltration System → UF Water Tank → RO or Reuse Point

The UF system normally includes filtration, backwashing, air scouring, chemically enhanced backwashing and periodic CIP cleaning.

 

5. Optional Configurations

Optional Configuration Main Function
Coagulation and clarification Treats high-turbidity surface water
Multimedia filtration Reduces suspended solids before UF
Activated carbon filtration Reduces odor and some organic contaminants
Automatic air scouring Improves membrane backwashing
Chemical dosing Supports coagulation and membrane cleaning
CEB system Chemically enhanced membrane backwashing
CIP cleaning system Restores membrane performance
Online turbidity monitoring Monitors feed and product water
SDI monitoring Evaluates suitability for downstream RO
PLC and remote monitoring Automates operation and fault alarms
Duty/standby membrane trains Supports uninterrupted water supply
Containerized design Suitable for remote or outdoor projects
SS304/SS316 pipelines Provides enhanced corrosion resistance

 

6. Technical Parameters

Parameter Typical Specification
Daily product-water capacity 3600m³/day
Average net output Approximately 150m³/h
Membrane type Industrial hollow-fiber UF membrane
Typical pore size Approximately 0.01μm
Operating mode Dead-end or cross-flow, project-dependent
Operating pressure Typically 0.1–0.3MPa
Recovery rate Generally ≥90%, water-dependent
Operating temperature Typically 5–45°C
Backwashing Automatic
Chemical cleaning CEB and CIP
Control system Automatic PLC
Monitoring Flow, pressure, turbidity and tank level
Pipeline material UPVC, carbon steel, SS304 or SS316
Power supply 380V/415V, 50/60Hz customizable
Installation Modular skid-mounted or containerized

Final membrane quantity, design flux and recovery rate must be calculated from the complete water analysis and required net capacity.

 

7. Application Industries

The 3600m³/day large-scale ultrafiltration system is suitable for:

  •  • Municipal and community water plants
  •  • Industrial-park centralized water supply
  •  • Power-plant RO pretreatment
  •  • Food and beverage factories
  •  • Chemical and textile plants
  •  • Mining-water treatment
  •  • Electronics manufacturing
  •  • Cooling-water filtration
  •  • Surface-water purification
  •  • Tertiary wastewater reuse
  •  • Seawater desalination pretreatment

 

8. Frequently Asked Questions

How is 3600 tons/day converted into hourly capacity?

Based on 24-hour operation, 3600m³/day equals an average product-water output of 150m³/h. The gross system capacity may need to be higher to compensate for backwashing and cleaning.

 

What contaminants does ultrafiltration remove?

UF reduces suspended solids, turbidity, colloids, many bacteria and high-molecular-weight substances. It does not remove dissolved salts.

 

Can UF replace reverse osmosis?

No. UF is mainly used for particle and colloid removal, while RO removes dissolved salts and reduces conductivity.

 

Can the system treat high-turbidity river water?

Yes, but coagulation, clarification or multimedia filtration may be required before UF, especially during seasonal turbidity peaks.

 

Can the plant operate continuously?

Yes. Multiple membrane trains can operate alternately during filtration and backwashing. Standby capacity can be added for critical projects.

 

How often should UF membranes be cleaned?

Cleaning frequency depends on feed-water quality, transmembrane pressure and flux decline. Automatic backwashing is frequent, while CEB and CIP are performed according to operating data.

 

Can UF water be used for drinking?

UF can be part of a drinking-water treatment process, but final disinfection and laboratory verification are required.
