In today’s water treatment technology, Membrane Bioreactors (MBR) are a revolutionary technology for treating industrial and municipal wastewaters. Among the possible membranes used, PVDF MBR Modular systems are world-known for efficiency, reliability, and high-quality output water. Understanding two important parameters—pore size and hydrophilicity—can greatly optimize the performance of such systems and ensure improved water quality for different applications.
What is a PVDF MBR Modular?
PVDF MBR Modular is a suspended growth biological treatment combined with a membrane treatment process, e.g., microfiltration or ultrafiltration. Stable and consistent wastewater operation and high-quality effluent can be attained by aerobic microbiological treatment. PVDF membranes have some advantages over conventional materials, e.g., chemical resistance, hydrophilicity, and mechanical strength, and are suitable for a broad range of wastewater treatment applications.
In Hinada, we have installed top-quality PVDF MBR Modular solutions extensively distributed to the global market, ranging from small capacity projects of 4,000 liters per day to large industrial units of 1,000,000 liters per day. With more than 13 years of experience in water treatment and 10 years in membrane production, our experts offer expert solutions, installation assistance, and complete training.
The Role of Pore Size in PVDF MBR Membranes
One of the most important properties of MBR Modular systems is hollow fiber membrane pore size. Pore size actually controls efficiency of solid removal, treated water clarity, and system efficiency in general. For PVDF, pore size will range from 0.01 to 0.4 microns, allowing suspended matter above 2 microns to be removed with close to 100% efficiency. Organics are eliminated with maximum efficiency of 99.99%, and the turbidity of treated water is always less than 0.2 NTU.
Optimal pore size selection is critical. Large pores might allow undesired solid to permeate, lowering the treatment effectiveness. Small pores could enhance fouling, decrease flow rates, and enhance difficulties in cleaning. Hollow fiber membranes utilized in PVDF MBR Modular systems have been designed to achieve a balance between all of these aspects with high flow rates coupled with minimal energy consumption and less maintenance.
Hydrophilicity: Improving Filtration Efficiency
Hydrophilicity, the property of a membrane to be water-loving, is another attribute making PVDF membranes. Hydrophilic membranes are free to permeate water with prevention of adhesion of foulants. Hydrophilicity decreases fouling potential, conserves energy, and prolongs the membrane lifetime. High hydrophilicity of our MBR module system PVDF fibers is the reason for excellent and stable water treatment performance, with high-quality effluent even under changing wastewater conditions.
Our PVDF MBR Modular systems incorporate hollow fibers that are specifically engineered to provide ultimate hydrophilicity, as well as having precisely controlled pore sizes. The design of the system guarantees that the system will always produce clean, clear water ready to be used in almost all applications, ranging from industrial wastewater treatment to municipal sewage treatment and water reuse processes.
Benefits of PVDF MBR Modular Systems
Lower Energy Expenditure: PVDF MBR Modular systems are low pressure systems that minimize energy expenditure as opposed to conventional treatment technology.
High Quality Effluent: Control of pore size and hydrophilic membrane guarantee water of consistently high quality with practically no turbidity.
Low Footprint: The modularity enables low-sized plants, which are apt for space-limited applications.
Simple Operation and High Flow Rate: Hydrophilicity and designed pore size both provide effective filtration without requiring complicated operation procedures.
Low Maintenance: Fouling resistance in hydrophilic PVDF membranes, and modularity, allow for simple cleaning and maintenance.
We offer fully customizable PVDF MBR Modular solutions to accommodate each project, from small 30 m³/day packaged systems to heavy-duty industrial applications. Our expertise guarantees each system is optimized to deliver maximum performance, efficiency, and water quality.

FAQs
- How does pore size impact a MBR Modular system’s performance?
Pore size is the determinant of filtration efficiency. Correctly sized pores filter solids and organics efficiently, have high flow rates, minimize fouling, and provide stable water quality. PVDF membranes usually operate between 0.01 and 0.4 microns for their optimal performance.
- Why is hydrophilicity an important factor for PVDF MBR membrane?
The hydrophilic membrane allows water to pass easily and reduce the adhesion of the contaminants. It reduces energy consumption, reduces fouling, and eventually the membrane expands the service life, which ensures frequent high quality effluent.
- Why are Hinada’s MBR Modular systems ideal for a wide range of wastewater applications?
Our systems are controlled pore size, highly hydrophilic, and modular in design and are highly suitable for industrial wastewaters, municipal sewage treatment, and water reutilization. Each system is tailored for project-specific requirements.
