Microfiltration is a separation process that uses a porous membrane or filter media with pore sizes typically ranging from 0.1 to 10 micrometers. It is widely recognized as a reliable method to remove suspended solids, bacteria, yeast, and colloids from liquids. Unlike ultrafiltration or reverse osmosis, microfiltration focuses on retaining larger particles while allowing water and dissolved substances to pass through.
In modern industries, however, microfiltration is not limited to membranes alone. Filter cartridges and filter bags play an equally important role in protecting downstream equipment, reducing operational costs, and ensuring product quality. By combining different types of filters—such as melt blown filter cartridges, string wound filter cartridges, pleated filter cartridges, activated carbon filters, and filter bags—companies can design efficient and cost-effective microfiltration systems tailored to their processes.
