Hydranautics ESPA Series Membranes
Hydranautics ESPA (Energy-Saving Polyamide) RO membranes continue to meet the ever-increasing demands of the water treatment industry. Industrial users worldwide have made ESPA their choice for high productivity and salt rejection. There's an ESPA solution to satisfy even the most challenging water treatment needs with exceptional performance, productivity and savings.
Benefits
- Up to 99.6% Nominal Rejection
- Lower pressure for lower CAPEX/OPEX
- High Productivity
- Longer Membrane Life due to Low Biological and Colloidal Fouling
- Higher rejection for impurities including Silica and Boron
- Greater Tolerance to High pH Cleaning
