Ammonia captured, flexibility unlocked

Transform ammonia abatement with TransMembrane ChemiSorption (TMCS)

3M™ Liqui-Cel™ EXF Series Membrane Contactors enable TMCS for ammonia abatement in microelectronics wastewater treatment with several advantages over current methods. It features benefits such as:

  • Helps lower operating costs
  • Enables resource recovery
  • Modular and scalable
  • Uses smaller footprint
  • May help reduce environmental impact
  • Helps meet regulatory compliance
  • Inline processing without the need for re-pressurisation

Get all of this and more in a single-step process that operates at a lower temperature than steam or stripping, plus it allows for reclaimed ammonia byproduct for potential resale.

The opportunity to turn waste into a resource

Manufacturers of electronics, power generation companies, and other industries are increasingly using Liqui-Cel membrane contactors for TMCS to efficiently remove and reclaim ammonia in a beneficial form, thereby enabling the reuse of wastewater streams. By using Liqui-Cel membrane contactors for TMCS, you benefit from:

Effective, efficient and easy single-step processing

Improves your process by combining two steps into one, compared to a stripping and scrubbing process. Compatible with a 3M™ High Flow Series Filter System pre-filter for an efficient ammonia abatement solution.

Excellent all-round value

Uses less energy to operate compared to steam or air stripping. Lower energy costs, compact design and potential to sell the ammonia byproduct may contribute to a reduced cost of ownership.
