Swirltex

Active

Swirltex has developed a revolutionary membrane technology that can significantly improve wastewater treatment while facilitating water re-use for industrial applications. "Buoyancy Based Membrane Filtration" is designed as to increase efficiency and prolong membrane life, reducing costs.

What it does

Swirltex is an innovative startup in the energy, food & beverage, and sustainability sectors, revolutionizing wastewater treatment with its groundbreaking membrane technology. Founded in Alberta, Swirltex's membrane filtration system, developed by experienced water engineer Peter Christou, addresses the common issue of fouling in membrane filtration by manipulating the buoyancy of contaminants. This unique approach prevents contaminants from contacting the membrane, leading to increased efficiency and prolonged membrane life. Unlike traditional systems, Swirltex's technology allows for the use of lower-cost polymeric membranes, achieving a significantly higher flux while avoiding fouling. By enabling water re-use for industrial applications, Swirltex is driving sustainability and cost-effectiveness in the wastewater treatment industry.
