High flux due to ultrathin membrane layer and high porosity substrate.

This results in:  ​

• High flow on small foot-print for more compact plants
• Low pressure operations
• Lower energy consumption

Due to low zeta potential, SiC membranes have a remarkable anti fouling property.

This leads to: 

• Longer filtration cycles (without backwash)
• Less maintenance for cleaning  
• Lower energy expenditure

Silicon Carbide is almost universally chemical-resistant (pH 0-14).

This enables:​

• T​​​​​reatment of highly corrosive feed water 
• More adaptability in cleaning

SiC membranes are particularly resistant to rapid, shock-like temperature changes. Heat can be transferred fast and there are hardly any tensions in the membrane that could lead to damage.​

SiC membranes are very hydrophilic due to low contact angle between water and membrane surfaces. Combined with the lipophobical attribute, this alows an optimized oil-water emulsion separation.
