Our Experience

With years of experience in the pulp and paper industry, Membrane Specialists offers a full range of membrane filtration technologies that allow producers to more efficiently remove by-products and waste from both their products and effluent. We can engineer and build complete systems for traditional uses, such as water recycling and recovery of valuable by-products, as well as some new uses including the production of cellulosic ethanol.

Typical applications include:

  • Effluent processing for color, COD/BOD and toxicity removal
  • Processing of mechanical or chemical pulping effluent prior to recycling
  • Removal of evaporator acid condensate for effluent treatment and water recycling
  • De-resining of pulp washwater
  • Whitewater processing for fiber recovery
