Transforming industry with membrane filtration

Separations are critical to manufacturing to the products and materials we use every day, spanning chemicals, paper, fuels, and more. Thermal separations are expensive and energy intensive, but there is a better way.

Transforming industry with membrane filtration

Via Separations’ membrane technology uses up to 90% less energy than traditional evaporation or distillation because it is a physical separation, rather than a thermal process. Our membranes work like a coffee filter or pasta strainer, but for chemicals.

Membranes built for industry

Via’s membranes are made of a unique material called graphene oxide (GO). GO is an extremely stable material, meaning our membranes can withstand high temperature, corrosive process conditions where typical polymer membranes would quickly fail.
