New RO element from DuPont

DuPont has launched the FilmTec MXP RO-8038-FF element, a mesh wrapped reverse osmosis solution engineered for dairy processors who rely on mesh wrapped systems. As dairy producers seek to maximise throughput while maintaining trusted operational practices, FilmTec MXP RO-8038-FF element offers a drop-in solution that can deliver approximately 5% higher active membrane area and up to 50% greater productivity compared to conventional mesh wrapped elements. The technology enables dairy processors to achieve higher yields and improved efficiencies without changing their established operations, the company says.

“The element is our answer to our customers who prefer mesh wrapped technology for dairy production, and offers familiar handling with the productivity gains FilmTec Hypershell XP elements have become known for,” said Noel Carr, global dairy market leader for DuPont Water Solutions. “With this new element, dairy processors can achieve higher throughput and more consistent operational performance, all while maintaining the mesh wrapped configuration they trust to produce high-quality dairy products.”

The element is engineered for the concentration of milk, whey and lactose streams, supporting higher recovery rates and less wastewater generation. Its dimensions align with competitive 8038-sized elements, ensuring seamless changeovers in dairy facilities.
