Process Overview
Industrial wastewater treatment involves handling aggressive chemicals, abrasive solids, and high-temperature process streams. Filtration systems must operate reliably under harsh conditions where conventional polymer filters often fail due to thermal or chemical degradation.
CMI provides sintered metal filtration solutions designed for high-load, high-temperature, and corrosive wastewater applications, offering long service life and stable performance.
Key Filtration Applications
|
High-Value Catalyst Recovery • Capture of precious metal particles such as palladium, platinum, and nickel • High-efficiency filtration down to sub-micron levels • Prevention of valuable material loss in wastewater streams High-Temperature & Corrosive Wastewater • Filtration of near-boiling or chemically aggressive process streams • Operation in acidic, alkaline, or solvent-rich environments • Suitable for textile, chemical, and petrochemical wastewater Automatic Backwash Filtration Systems • In-situ cleaning using air or liquid backpulsing • Continuous operation without process interruption • Reduction of disposable filter waste and maintenance frequency Pre-treatment for Membranes & AOP Systems • Removal of suspended solids (TSS) and fine particulates • Protection of UF/RO membranes and advanced oxidation systems • Reduction of fouling and cleaning frequency |
Filtration Challenges
Industrial wastewater often contains high concentrations of solids, corrosive chemicals, and elevated temperatures. Disposable filter elements may suffer from short service life, structural degradation, or secondary waste generation.
CMI Filtration Solutions
CMI sintered metal filters provide a permanent and cleanable filtration solution, ensuring stable performance under demanding operating conditions.
- Precise filtration accuracy (down to 0.1–0.2 μm)
- High temperature resistance (up to 600°C depending on material)
- Excellent chemical compatibility (316L, Hastelloy, Monel, Inconel)
- Reusable and backwashable design for reduced operating cost
- Stable structure without pore deformation under pressure
