Toray, through its extensive R&D activities utilizing its global research and production facilities in Japan, Korea, China, Singapore and the United States, has established core technologies to control the attachment of various foulants contained in water onto the membrane, while maintaining superior rejection and permeability. Toray has supplied 6 million cubic meters per day capacity worth of low fouling membrane for wastewater treatment application in accumulative basis globally, which is enough to serve 40 million people around the world daily. The serious water shortage and water contamination from rapid industrial growth have become a global issue, and Toray will contribute to solve it with the newly introduced TLF series. TLF series membrane can also contribute to other industrial applications such as ultrapure water or boiler feed water treatment.
