RO MEMBRANES WITH FOULING-IMMUNE TECHNOLOGY FOR
Landfill Leachate
With ZwitterCo membranes, it's time for a new era for landfill leachate management. ZwitterCo’s advanced drop-in replacement RO membranes use fouling-immune technology to reduce cleaning frequency by up to 90% and last at least 2x longer than conventional RO membranes.
ZwitterCo has integrated our patented zwitterionic technology with proven commercial brackish water membranes to deliver a drop-in replacement RO membrane with unprecedented fouling resistance.
- Longer membrane life
- Reduced operating costs
- Significantly longer run-time between required maintenance
- Full performance restoration

What Challenges Can ZwitterCo Technology Solve For You?
ReduceOPEX
Cleaning kills membranes. With up to a 90% reduction in cleaning frequency, element replacements are less frequent, saving time and money.
IncreasedUptime
No more system upsets or headaches due to fouling and membrane cleaning. Stable operation with minimal cleaning allows for increased uptime, so you can focus on the important things.
Reduce or Eliminate Irreversible Fouling
ZwitterCo has integrated our patented zwitterionic technology with proven commercial brackish water membranes to deliver unprecedented fouling resistance, reducing cleaning and membrane replacement frequency.
PromoteSustainability
By reducing the volume of waste generated from frequent membrane cleanings and replacements, ZwitterCo membranes contribute to more sustainable landfill operations.
SOLUTION #1
Reduce OPEX
Our advanced drop-in replacement RO membranes offer 2x membrane life and reduce cleaning frequency by up to 90%. This allows for fewer element replacements and less chemical usage, providing significant overall cost savings.
- Drop-in replacement - No CAPEX
- 2x membrane life
- Reduced cleaning frequency
"Overall, we’re thrilled with how things are going. Less chemicals, longer run times, and an easier process for our team—it’s been a win all around"
– SERPOL, France
SOLUTION #2
Reduced Downtime From Cleaning
Operators want to focus on other tasks without the hassle of frequent maintenance on the water treatment system.
With ZwitterCo RO membranes that use fouling-immune technology, cleaning frequency is reduced by up to 90%, allowing for more uptime and more water treated to empty holding ponds/tanks.
Cost Savings
A landfill leachate treatment system using 30 x 8040 RO elements could reduce annual cleaning costs by over $1,500 per element when switching to ZwitterCo RO.

SOLUTION #3
Reduce or Eliminate Fouling Issues
High organic content in leachate often fouls the first pass of a multi-pass RO system. This means RO membranes may need to be cleaned as often as every few days and fully replaced every 6-12 months.
ZwitterCo has integrated our patented zwitterionic technology with proven commercial brackish water membranes to solve these challenges and deliver unprecedented fouling resistance. This reduces cleaning frequency and in turn, membrane replacement frequency.

IDEAL RO PRETREATMENT
ZwitterCo Superfiltration (SF)
ZwitterCo SF in leachate provides TSS and FOG free permeate that is ideal for RO or deep well injection.
ZwitterCo superfiltration as pretreatment for RO offers:
- 90-99% removal of TSS
- 90-99% removal of FOG
- 30-90% removal of COD/BOD
- Reduction of hauling volumes by up to 80%
SOLUTION #4
Promote Sustainability
By reducing the volume of waste generated from frequent membrane cleanings and replacements, ZwitterCo membranes play a key role in contributing to more sustainable landfill operations.
Plus, according to the EPA, reverse osmosis membranes – like ZwitterCo’s – can remove up to 99% of certain PFAS, making them a strong choice for protecting the environment.
With reduced cleaning frequency, ZwitterCo membranes also
- Reduce chemical use
- Reduce freshwater dependency
