DOW FilmTec Nanofiltration Membrane Elements
DOW FILMTEC NF270 membrane elements are ideal for removing a high percentage of TOC and THM precursors with medium to high salt passage and medium hardness passage. The DOW FILMTEC NF270 membrane is an ideal choice for surface water and ground water where good organic removal is desired with partial softening.
DOW FILMTEC NF90 membrane elements provide high productivity performance while removing a high percentage of salts, nitrate, iron and organic compounds such as pesticides, herbicides and THM precursors.
