INDUSTRY

Which sector are you interested in?

Robust treatment technologies for color removal, salinity, and high‑variability wastewater streams
Reliable digestate treatment for cleaner effluent, stable operation, and more circular plant performance.
High‑purity, regulatory‑compliant water management for sensitive and complex wastewater compositions
Effective wastewater treatment is a critical technical, environmental, and regulatory challenge for the Enegery and Oil & Gas industry.
The mining and metal industries face significant challenges in wastewater treatment due to the complex and variable nature of their waste streams. These industries generate large volumes of wastewater containing dissolved minerals, heavy metals, sulphates, organic matter, and sometimes toxic chemicals, making treatment both demanding and crucial.
Managing landfill leachate is challenging, and choosing the right technology partner makes all the difference. At Berghof Membranes, we support operators worldwide with reliable, field‑proven high‑performance tubular membranes, designed for the demanding conditions of landfill leachate treatment.
Tailored filtration solutions that deliver consistent effluent quality and support sustainable production.
Advanced membrane treatment for high‑load dairy wastewater — ensuring compliance and resource efficiency.

Applications

As the leading manufacturer of tubular membranes for the filtration and separation of process streams and wastewater in a variety of industries, we can support you within various applications. Is your application not listed? Then please contact us.

AnMBR

AnMBR is ideal for the treatment of high-strength wastewater, achieving maximum conversions of organics into biogas. It deals with FOG, conductivity, and solids more robust and efficient than other anaerobic technologies.

MBR

MBR is ideal for the treatment of medium strength wastewater, being the most efficient for removing organic pollutants and nutrient loads. It provides a superior and consistent quality effluent, that is fit for reuse.

Direct Filtration

Direct filtration solutions are able to tackle tough separation, purification and concentration processes: from waste minimization to water reuse or materials recovery, we addresses a wide range of industrial applications.

Manufactured in Germany

Made in a state-of-the art LEAN-production facility, with highly-trained production personnel and materials of the highest quality.

Tubular UF Membrane Modules ​

To prevent fouling and clogging, Berghof Membranes developed its line of robust tubular UF (ultrafiltration) membrane modules based on inside-out crossflow filtration.

Membrane Skid systems​

Berghof Membranes developed B-SMART®, a customizable external membrane filtration system that can be designed with various features and functionalities.

Pilot systems & Lab testing​

Bridging the gap between lab-scale testing and manufacturing. Our experts gives you the confidence to apply the technology for your specific wastewater challenges.

B-CARE® Service and Support

The B-CARE® program is an end-to-end comprehensive program developed to support our OEM partners from the piloting/engineering phase to operational system monitoring.
