Membrane Filtration Precision Comparison
| Membrane Type | Retention Pore Size Range | Retained Objects | Main Process Function | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Microfiltration (MF) | 0.1-10μm | Suspended solids, colloids, bacteria and impurity particles | Coarse filtration and pre-clarification | Raw-material pretreatment, beverage coarse filtration and water pretreatment |
| Ultrafiltration (UF) | 0.001-0.1μm (1-100nm) | Proteins, polysaccharides, macromolecular colloids and viruses | Purification, separation and decolorization | Biopharma, plant and animal extracts, fermentation broth clarification |
| Nanofiltration (NF) | 0.0001-0.001μm (0.1-1nm) | Divalent salts, small-molecule pigments and polysaccharides | Decolorization, light desalination and concentration | Juice concentration, herbal extract purification and reclaimed-water softening |
| Reverse Osmosis (RO) | < 0.0001μm (< 0.1nm) | Inorganic salts, small organic molecules and heavy metals | Desalination, pure-water production and material concentration | Pure water treatment, environmental wastewater and food concentration/desalination |
