Parker Hannifin – Membrane System

About the Company:

Parker Hannifin Corporation’s Renewable Resource Team provides innovative clean water solutions to markets that have some of the most challenging feed streams, including manure management. Parker Hannifin not only offers a system solution, parker Hannifin also helps you every step of the way to ensure you have the system you need to get the clean water you want. Parker Hannifin’s customized procurement process includes application evaluation, lab testing, onsite pilot testing, engineering design, and commissioning.

About the Solution:

The Parker Momentus system is an anti-fouling membrane system that separates feed streams into clean water and concentrates. It features a unique vibrating mechanism which keeps membrane surfaces clean, ensuring faster throughput, better recovery, higher efficiency and less maintenance cost.

Parker Momentus serves a variety of markets including manure waste, biogas effluent, food and beverage, industrial and manufacturing wastewater, as well as landfill leachate. The Momentus technology can replace existing separation technology or be used to enhance current separation processes such as centrifuges, clarifiers, biological processes, evaporators or pressure filters.

Solution Strengths, Weaknesses and Critical Indicators

Clean Water Membrane Systems can be used to reduce both suspended and dissolved solids depending on location specific requirements:

  • Can produce recycled dischargeable water (RO) and marketable products when paired with other technologies
  • Always produces two streams leaving system a stream retained and a stream that permeates the membrane.
  • Membranes of various size are often used together to achieve cleaner water: microfiltration or ultrafiltration membranes first followed by reverse osmosis membranes—each allowing various sized particles through the membrane
  • Reverse Osmosis membranes are required to remove salts and achieve water suitable for discharge
  • Depending on the membrane, effective pre-treatment to remove coarse, fibrous solids as well as fine suspended solids are important to system viability and reliability
  • Membrane failure and high pressure/energy costs can be a concern
  • Proven technology for nitrogen recovery, phosphorous recovery, and storage reduction

Newtrient Comments/Opinions:

Membrane Based Nutrient Removal technologies:

  • Produces recycled water and marketable products when paired with other technologies
  • Always produce a stream leaving membrane and stream rejected by membrane
  • Membranes of various size: Microfiltration, Ultrafiltration and Reverse Osmosis—each allowing various sized particles through the membrane
  • Reverse Osmosis required to remove salts and achieve water suitable for discharge
  • Effective pre-treatment to remove coarse, fibrous solids as well as fine suspended solids are important to system viability and reliability
  • Membrane failure and high pressure/energy costs can be a concern
Parker Hannifin has developed vibrating membrane technology that could be an alternative for separating suspended solids from dairy manure. This system has not been given a 9-Point Score because it is not currently installed on any dairy farms.
