Ultrafiltration is a membrane filtration-based method that achieves separation through a semi-permeable membrane.
An Ultrafiltration filter has a pore size of around 0.01 microns. The process removes turbidity, bacteria, protozoa, and some viruses from the water but it cannot remove dissolved substances unless they are first adsorbed (with activated carbon) or coagulated (with alum or iron salts).
Ultrafiltration is often used for the removal of particulates and macromolecules from raw water in order to obtain potable water. It is also utilized in a range of industries from chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing to food and beverage processing and is also used in blood dialysis.
