Achieving success while lowering operating costs

Powered by FilmTec™ technology, the FilmTec™ Fortilife™ product family is designed for plants and facilities that need an industry-leading nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) water treatment that’s reliable, easy to clean, and that would benefit from a durable, robust membrane.

FilmTec™ Fortilife™ reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) elements can help you:

  • Reduce water costs and lower operating expenses.
  • Achieve sustainability goals.
  • Minimize biofouling problems.
  • Move toward minimal liquid discharge (MLD).
Product Suites

Reduce cleanings, increase productivity, and decrease waste

FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR200
FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR100
FilmTec™ Fortilife™ XC

Fortify your water treatment system with expert fouling resistance

The FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR200 element is an expertly designed contaminant resistant element for recycling and treating the combined challenge of biological and organic fouling prone waters. FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR200 delivers systems with superior operational efficiency and consistent solute rejection using a combination of patented membrane and module technologies. It couples a high productivity, durable, biological and organic fouling resistant membrane to an ultra-low pressure drop element design.

Advantages include:

  • Most advanced contaminant resistant DuPont FilmTec™ RO membrane.
  • Up to 20% more water productivity at the same energy consumption or up to 20% less energy consumption at the same water productivity.
  • Up to 50% reduction in the number of cleanings in biological and organic fouling systems.
  • Durable membrane with a cleaning tolerance over a wide pH range (pH 1-13) for consistent, long-lasting lifetime.

Protect water systems against biofouling

The  FilmTec™ Fortilife™ CR100 element is an advanced element design for treating and recycling highly biofouling prone waters, such as wastewater. It utilizes an ultra-low pressure drop element design and a durable, fouling resistant, and cleanable membrane chemistry that provides outstanding solute rejection over a long element lifetime. These benefits are available with either standard (CR100) or iLEC™ (CR100i) end cap designs.   

Advantages include:

  • Up to 10% less energy consumption at the same water productivity.
  • Up to 50% reduction in the number of cleanings. 
  • Durable membrane with a cleaning tolerance over a wide pH range (pH 1-13) for consistent, long-lasting lifetime.

Meet wastewater treatment challenges with minimal liquid discharge for reuse

FilmTec™ Fortilife™ XC elements help to meet the specific treat-for-purpose challenges for maximizing wastewater reuse. Each product in The FilmTec™ Fortilife™ XC family is equipped with unique features and benefits to provide tailored solutions to meet your wastewater challenge.
