Our filtration and separation solutions for process water function by removing bacteria, viruses, suspended solids and dissolved solids, where required. Our PURON® MP module is certified for drinking water, providing a positive barrier to contaminents that conventional media filtration cannot guarantee.
Ideal for:
Process Water
Conditioning
We produce process water that will be used in food manufacturing, our UF systems, sometimes followed by our RO systems will make a reliable and consistent final product.
Demand has continued to increase for products that combine nutrition and pharmaceuticals to help support wellness and reduce healthcare costs. Our filtration and separation technologies streamline nutraceutical processes and reduce the cost of extraction, separation, concentration, and purification.

Our filtration and separation solutions for food processing wastewater treatment produce water for recovery and recycle back to the plant, or for discharge to drain. Depending on the technology selected, contaminants are either reduced sufficiently for direct discharge or significantly concentrated to substantially reduce hauling costs. Wastewaters from these industries are considered a challenge to treat, often containing high levels of suspended solids, fats, oils & grease, BOD, and COD. Our systems and experience work to solve this problem by not only applying the correct membrane configuration, but by combining these specialized membranes with over 50 years of KSS system design and direct installation experience on these relatively unforgiving waste streams.
Ideal for:
Wastewater Pretreatment
Food processing equipment wash, plant and facility cleaning, and CIP wastewater treatment for the separation of suspended solids, fats, oils, and grease, COD solids, and other non-dischargable contaminants.
Wastewater Reuse
Pretreated, TSS-free wastewaters can be further polished to remove dissolved solids from process water for recycle and reuse, reducing freshwater usage and end-of-pipe wastewater volume.
