Start with Swing. Choose Palisade, Ceramic or Scrub when the job calls for it.

	Swing MBR	Palisade MBR	Ceramic	Scrub UF
Best for	Municipal & domestic MBR; retrofits of existing tanks	Where a rigid plate and targeted scour are wanted	Hard feeds: oils, solvents, high solids, aggressive cleaning	Packaged UF outside MBR duty
Membrane	PVDF or PVDF + graphene thin-film composite; permanently wetted dry film	PES on polypropylene plate	Silicon carbide or alumina	Thin-film UF sheet
Pore	0.04 µm UF · 0.4 µm MF available	0.04 µm standard · 0.4 µm optional	By element (100 nm common for SiC)	UF
Scour & cleaning	Continuous coarse-bubble scour; reverse-flow CIP, no pressurized backwash	Targeted scour on every plate; CIP, not backwashed	Backwash + CEB + CIP	Circulating scrubbing media; no backwash
Format	Swing-8 / Swing-9 cartridges in decks × columns, 135–11,900 ft² (12.5–1,104 m²)	130 or 260 plates, ≈1,470 / 2,940 ft² (136.5 / 273 m²)	Flat-sheet towers or tubular	Packaged units, 861–11,300 ft² (80–1,050 m²)
Service	Cartridge swap, module breakdown ~2 h	Plate and manifold replacement	Element replacement	Unit service
Relative cost	Lowest	Second lowest	Per project	Per project
Rental	Every Zyramic module is available to buy or rent.

Scrub UF design flux is 9–12 GFD (15–20 LMH), peak 15 GFD (25 LMH), and may run higher on clean water. Recovery is 90% or better on suitable feeds. See Scrub UF, RO pretreatment, industrial reuse and surface and drinking water. UF catalog Rev03 (PDF).

Palisade vs. Swing in 52 seconds.

Palisade is the heavy-duty plate-type flat sheet. Swing is the compact thin-film composite flat sheet with permanently wetted dry film.

We will recommend a platform from your flow and feed data.
