Aqua Membranes LLC specializes in the manufacture of reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filtration systems for both commercial and household applications. Founded in 2011 and based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the company utilizes innovative three-dimensional printed spacer technology to enhance membrane performance. This technology replaces traditional extruded mesh feed spacers with customized raised patterns that optimize flow patterns and turbulence, effectively reducing the entrapment of particulates and organic fouling. As a result, Aqua Membranes' products achieve increased permeate flow, improved flux and recovery, lower system pressure drop, and extended operational life for membrane elements. The technology is particularly beneficial for spiral-wound membrane manufacturers looking to enhance their product offerings, providing durable and low-maintenance solutions that can handle challenging feed conditions. Additionally, Aqua Membranes' advanced designs significantly lower both capital and operating expenses associated with membrane plant operations.
