We solve specific water challenges for the world's most demanding sectors
Semiconductor
Precision Water for Precision Manufacturing
In ultra-pure water applications, consistent water quality and uninterrupted supply are critical to maintaining yield and protecting production uptime.
Real World Results:
Micron Technology
Energy Reduction & 4x Slower Fouling
At Micron’s Boise facility, a side-by-side trial against standard mesh elements proved that Printed Spacer Technology® could cut RO energy use by 29% while extending the time between cleanings by 4x.
Food & Beverage
Consistency in Every Drop
Global brands require absolute taste consistency. We help plants maintain high-purity base water and improve water efficiency while lowering the carbon footprint of production.
Mining
Managing Challenging Waste Streams
Our open channel design reduces fouling and scaling, which minimizes chemical cleaning cycles and extends membrane life by more than 2x. This ultimately leads to fewer replacements, lower capital expenditures, and less operational downtime.
Real World Results:
Legacy Mine Remediation
Reduction in Cleaning Frequency
A major US mine site was forced to clean their mesh-based system monthly due to biofouling. After retrofitting with Aqua Membranes, cleaning intervals extended to 6 months—an 83% reduction in chemical use and downtime.
Power Generation
Maximizing Output Without Expansion
Aqua Membranes’ elements have more active area and improved flow distribution, allowing systems to produce more water within the same footprint, and meet growing demand using existing infrastructure.
Real World Results:
University of New Mexico
Output Increase & 4x Longer Life
The UNM co-gen facility needed more water but had no room to expand. By swapping to Aqua Membranes, they increased system output from 54 GPM to 72 GPM (+33%) without adding a single piece of new equipment.
Water Recycling
Closing the Loop on Industrial Water
Feedwaters often limit how hard operators can push their RO systems. Aqua Membranes’ elements improve flow distribution and fouling resistance, enabling more robust operation and higher recovery rates without sacrificing membrane longevity.
OEM
Better Systems Without a Redesign
While most systems rely on standard mesh spacers, manufacturers building RO systems can now offer a higher-performing element without changing a single drawing. Aqua Membranes' Printed Spacer Technology™ fits standard vessels, giving end users measurable gains in energy use, system capacity, cleaning intervals, and element life.
Car Wash
Improve Uptime Across Every Location
When RO elements wear out ahead of schedule, the result is low tank levels, unplanned downtime, and emergency orders. With Printed Spacer Technology™, Aqua Membranes' elements last 50% longer or more, and installation is a simple drop-in swap.
