💧 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐚 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝'𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭: Buoyancy Enhanced Membrane Filtration (BEMF) 🏆 Peter Christou innovated Swirltex’s BEMF technology in his Edmonton garage. This advancement addresses issues in membrane-based wastewater treatment, tackling high energy consumption, poor contaminants separation, fouling, excessive chemical usage, and maintenance costs. BEMF significantly enhances tubular membrane performance by introducing air injection, creating a two-phase flow and centrifugal force, thus enabling use in complex wastewater applications with reduced energy consumption and promoting water reuse. This breakthrough is deployed in challenging waste streams like coal wastewater, produced water, food & beverage, and forestry applications, enhancing wastewater treatment and reuse efficiency. Presently, BEMF technology stands as one of Canada’s largest wastewater treatment and reuse systems.
