WTA UNISOL, a global leader in innovative filtration technologies, is setting a new industry benchmark with the introduction of its revolutionary PFAS-free ultrafiltration membrane. Showcased at Aquatech Amsterdam, this cutting-edge technology represents a significant step forward in sustainable water and wastewater treatment.

A Sustainable Breakthrough in Water Filtration

The water treatment industry is under growing pressure to move away from PVDF-based membranes, which pose environmental and health risks due to their persistent carbon-fluorine bonds. The European Union's planned PFAS ban further underscores the urgency for alternatives. WTA UNISOL’s latest innovation delivers a forward-looking solution that aligns with these regulatory and sustainability demands.

PFAS, often called "forever chemicals," are synthetic substances notorious for their persistence in the environment. They can leach into water, soil, air, and even food, leading to widespread contamination. WTA UNISOL addresses this critical issue with the MYTEX H5L series, ensuring that its membranes and modules are completely free from PFAS, safeguarding water resources for future generations.

Key Advantages of WTA UNISOL’s PFAS-Free Membrane Technology

• Sustainable: Free of PFAS and PVDF, significantly reducing environmental impact.
• Safe: Constructed from polyethersulfone (PES), a non-toxic, BPA-free material widely used in sensitive industries such as baby products.
• Durable: Highly resistant to chemicals, scratches, and wear, ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Efficient: Designed with fully recyclable materials and modular components for easy adaptability across various applications.

How PES Enhances Performance

The newly developed membrane leverages the unique properties of PES, making it a superior alternative to conventional PVDF-based options.

• Its hydrophilic nature facilitates easier cleaning and reduces fouling.
• A negatively charged surface prevents solids from penetrating the membrane pores.
• Hydrophobic substances struggle to adhere, maintaining consistently high filtration efficiency over time.

“Our PFAS-free membrane is a milestone in filtration technology, combining top-tier efficiency with environmental and health protection,” said Carsten Bachert, Managing Director of WTA UNISOL. “By choosing PES, we provide an advanced, sustainable solution without compromising performance.”

Commitment to Global Sustainability

WTA UNISOL’s innovation is not just about technological advancement—it’s about responsibility. “With our sustainable filtration technologies, we aim to provide access to clean water worldwide while protecting the environment,” Bachert emphasized.

Visitors at Aquatech Amsterdam can experience this breakthrough firsthand at WTA UNISOL’s booth in Hall 10.500. Experts will be available to showcase the membrane’s capabilities and discuss its role in addressing modern water treatment challenges.
