Koch Membrane Systems (KMS), a leading supplier of
sanitary membranes for dairy, industrial biotechnology,
pharmaceutical intermediates, and food & beverage
companies, introduces a revolution in nanofiltration…
the SR3D™ membrane.
Not all nanofiltration membranes
are the same. The SR3D
membrane is designed for
selective rejection when desalting
and organic concentration is the
objective.
