This presentation outlines cutting-edge membrane technologies designed to separate and purify liquids, aiming to enhance the sustainability of biofuels, biochemicals, and bioplastics manufacturing. Key technologies include hydrophilic and hydrophobic membrane systems for effective water and organic separation, alongside advanced methods for treating wastewater. The strategic direction focuses on redirecting chemical waste from incineration to reuse, ultimately recovering clean drinking water. These solutions promise significant CAPEX and OPEX reductions while supporting both business and environmental goals.
