NF membrane screening

Rapid comparison of multiple membrane candidates under defined centrifugal pressure conditions. Each cartridge accommodates a single flat membrane coupon, making it practical to run replicate experiments in a single centrifuge run.

  • Rejection and flux comparison across commercial membranes
  • Early-stage selection before pilot-scale work
  • Reproducible pressure control via rotor speed

RO membrane evaluation

Compact experimental platform for early-stage RO membrane evaluation and comparative rejection studies, without requiring a full pump-driven cross-flow rig.

  • Permeate volume and rejection measurement
  • Multi-pressure operating points from a single rotor type
  • Low feed volume consumption per experiment
Solvent-based systems

OSN data generation

Organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) is constrained by limited publicly available screening data. CentrivaLab provides a structured approach for generating comparable membrane performance data across solvents and operating conditions.

  • Compatible with PEEK, PAEK and PPS cartridge materials for solvent resistance
  • Supports systematic solvent-by-solvent or membrane-by-membrane comparisons
  • Suitable for process development and early OSN dataset construction

Who uses CentrivaLab

The platform is designed for research groups and process-development teams working with membrane separation technology.

Academic and research groups

Low sample volume requirements and compatibility with standard centrifuge infrastructure make CentrivaLab practical for laboratory-scale membrane research, particularly in OSN where experimental data remain scarce.

Process development teams

Early-stage membrane selection studies benefit from rapid, structured screening before committing to larger pilot-scale trials. CentrivaLab allows multiple candidates to be compared under reproducible, controlled conditions.
