For some time now, newer mechanical fractionation methods using membranes have been applied during nanofiltration, ultrafiltration or microfiltration or reverse osmosis as an alternative to the processes named above. With microfiltration serving as an example, it will be shown in this paper that the deposit of a secondary membrane can be almost completely eliminated by expanding the crossflow principle and thus enable the detrimental influence of the formation of a covering layer to be largely overcome in conventional membrane technology.
