Advantages of Ultra Filtration
-
Highly efficient separation of bacteria and viruses (104 – 107 fold reduction) of any kind in one process step (physical barrier).
-
Conventional flocculation – sedimentation – sand filtration can be omitted. The plant gets much more compact.
-
Compared to sand filters the membrane cannot break.
-
Bacteria and viruses are separated and not only inactivated.
-
There are no side products and odor emissions.
-
The drinking water produced is colorless, odorless and neutrally flavored (provided there are no other additional process steps).
-
Very mobile application of GDM in disaster areas or for expeditions.
-
The membranes have a long lifetime and are cheaply and easily replaceable.
Application Areas

Production of drinking water (from river water, lake water, spring water, rain water)
-
Decentralized water filtration in isolated villages without electricity
-
Water supply for camping sites
-
(Temporary) water supply in disaster areas
