Problems and Prospects of Water-Supply by Ultrafiltration

General problems and prospects for water-supply using ultrafiltration technology are considered. The limits for application of this technology are indicated. The industrial water ultrafiltration plants appeared in the end of the XX century. Later in 2006 year the biggest in Europe plant purifying 250,000 m^3 of water per day by ultrafiltration was put into operation in Moscow. World experience shows that in large-scale station for purifying water the technology using combination of traditional methods with ozone treatment and sorption, and then membrane ultrafiltration is very useful.
