Project Ignition — Spacer
Spacer-side fouling control.
Project Ignition focuses on the feed spacer — one of the main sources of biofouling build-up inside reverse osmosis systems.
Spacer-side fouling control
Targets the feed spacer, one of the primary sites of biofouling accumulation.
Reduced cleaning burden
Aims to reduce pressure drop, fouling build-up, and cleaning frequency.
Direct spacer coating
Uses METASORB’s patented antifouling coating applied directly to reverse osmosis feed spacers.
Early biofilm prevention
Combines a superhydrophobic air layer with antimicrobial action to stop biofilm formation early.
