Conventional membranes filter by size. Molecular Filtration enables chemistry-driven filtration.
Organophobic Ceramic Membrane Technology
Molecular Filtration, Inc. develops ceramic membrane systems engineered to selectively reject non-polar organic compounds while allowing water and dissolved ions to pass. Unlike conventional membranes that rely primarily on pore size, our performance is driven by surface chemistry and polarity interactions.
Our organophobic membranes selectively reject hydrocarbons, aromatic compounds (BTX), and complex organic mixtures. This enables reliable operation in challenging environments where traditional filtration technologies struggle with emulsions, fouling, or chemical complexity.
- Selective rejection of non-polar organics
- Water and dissolved ions permeate freely
- Stable performance in complex emulsions
- Reduced fouling and lower chemical usage
- Low-pressure operation with high durability (ceramic materials)
Molecular Filtration Technology
Why Molecular Filtration?
- Low-pressure operation: Typical operation around 2 bar reduces energy consumption
- Minimal chemical usage: Reduced reliance on aggressive cleaning and additives
- Handles complex process streams: Effective in emulsions and chemically complex streams
- Stable performance: Designed to mitigate fouling in challenging environments
- Ceramic durability: High resistance to temperature, chemicals, and mechanical stress
- Compact footprint: Suitable for modular and skid-mounted systems
- Automation-ready: Easily integrated into continuous industrial processes
- Proven in industrial applications: Tested across oil & gas, CMP slurry, and industrial systems
Designed for applications where conventional filtration technologies fall short.

Our Technology Platform
Molecular Filtration, Inc. has developed a patented organophobic ceramic membrane platform engineered for molecular-level selectivity. Our technology is designed, engineered, and manufactured to deliver consistent, high-performance operation in demanding industrial environments.
Unlike conventional filtration systems, our platform leverages surface chemistry and polarity interactions to selectively reject non-polar organic compounds while allowing water and dissolved ions to permeate. This enables reliable separation in applications where traditional technologies fall short.
