Membrane Vapor Enricher for Water for Injection (WFI) Production. Phase 1

Abstract

The US Armed Forces have a logistical requirement for a continuous demand, high purity, Water For Injection (WFI) system to alleviate the logistical burden of transport and maintenance of large supplies of parenteral solutions. In this program, the feasibility of incorporating permeable membrane gas separation technology as the key element in the WFI production process has been evaluated. These high productivity, imperfection-free gas permeable membranes are highly selective to water vapor and are packaged in compact and lightweight hollow fiber module elements. Gas separation membranes, Pervaporation, Water for injection, Bioinstrumentation, Gas separation, Bioengineering. Keywords: Gas separation membranes, Pervaporation, Water for injection, Bioinstrumentation, Gas separation, Bioengineering.
