Standardised filtration plants for the treatment of industrial process streams

At the beginning of 2020, FTRJ GmbH was founded as an engineering and planning office as well as a full-service provider for filtration plant construction. The company was founded as a result of close cooperation between Andreas Junghans - Anlagenbau und Edelstahlbearbeitung GmbH & Co. KG with the Rauschert Group. Despite the brief history of the company, the employees of FTRJ are able to build on more than 25 years of experience in filtration plant construction through their previous activities at Andreas Junghans. One of FTRJ's specialisations is membrane filtration plants, using ceramic Inopor® nanofiltration membranes, among others.

Industrial application of ceramic nanofiltration membranes for water treatment in oil sands mines

A nanofiltration plant (permeate flow capacity of 20 m³/h) with a titania ceramic membrane was used to reduce ion concentration, total suspended solids (TSS), and total organic carbon (TOC) in circulated water from a Canadian oil sands mine.

This plant, the first of its kind, was tested for nearly two years to evaluate the membrane's performance under real process water conditions.

This paper focuses on the results at a 50% step reduction. A strong correlation was found between specific flow and retention, with the highest mass retention found at the lowest specific flow values.

Possible formation of a top layer on the membrane surface seems to favour retention, as lower specific flux rates improve mass retention.

Analysis of more than 20 ions showed that differences in the size of hydrated ions and electrostatic phenomena play a role, with bivalent cations showing the greatest rejection. In addition, 75-90% TOC and almost 100% TSS retention was observed. These results show that it is possible to use this technology in an oil sands mine to significantly improve water quality and reduce river water intake.
