Prove it on your water before you build.
A scaled pilot skid runs against your actual feed water, producing real data on recovery, flux, and fouling — so the production system is sized for your conditions, not theoretical assumptions.
Three steps from sample to specification.
Sample & Analyze
We review your feed-water characteristics, variability, and treatment targets to define pilot success criteria.
Pilot on Site
A scaled pilot skid runs against your water, measuring real recovery, flux, and fouling behavior over time.
Design & Build
Pilot data drives the final system design — sized and configured to your validated conditions.
Data you can design — and decide — on.
- ✓ Validated recovery and flux rates on your feed water
- ✓ Fouling behavior and cleaning regime recommendations
- ✓ A production-system design basis grounded in measured performance
- ✓ A clear go/no-go decision before major capital commitment
The Akualys UF Pilot Unit — a complete pilot plant in a 20-ft container.
Delivered, started up, and running on your water. Everything a serious UF pilot needs ships inside one container.
Inside the container
- ✓ 2 × Akualys PVDF UF modules — 861 ft² of membrane area
- ✓ Feed pump & backwash pump
- ✓ Air blower for air scour
- ✓ CEB dosing pumps & daily tanks (NaOCl, NaOH, acid)
- ✓ CIP unit
- ✓ PLC control panel
Measured on your water
- ✓ Feed and filtrate flow (FT 101 / FT 102)
- ✓ Feed and filtrate pressure (PT 101 / PT 102)
- ✓ Filtrate turbidity (AIT 101)
- ✓ Backwash and CEB cycles under real fouling conditions
Full general arrangement and simplified P&ID are included in the pilot unit brochure — download it below.
