The summer holidays are unfortunately over, but weโ€™re happy to be back at work!
This week, weโ€™re working on scheduled maintenance of the Rabofsky Pleater at Dutch Filtration, precision machining for various customers, and a range of welding and assembly activities.
A varied start after the summer break, with plenty of work underway across the company.

Last week, five of our rental dual cartridge filter units left our production facility for a temporary filtration project supporting the well test of a new geothermal well.

Produced water filtration during well testing is critical to protect downstream equipment, ensure reliable sampling results and maintain smooth operations throughout the testing campaign.

For this project, Dutch Filtration is supplying:
- 5pcs Dual Cartridge Filter Units with Quick Opening Closures
- Filter elements from our own production facility
- Rapid deployment from our rental fleet

The filtration package will be operational for approximately 2-3 weeks during the well test program.
One of the advantages of working with Dutch Filtration is that we both manufacture the filtration equipment and produce the filter elements in-house. This allows us to quickly configure the right filtration solution and ensure continuous supply of replacement elements whenever required.

Whether for geothermal projects, oil & gas well testing, produced water treatment or temporary industrial filtration, rental filtration systems provide a flexible and cost-effective solution when permanent installations are not required.

We wish the project team a safe and successful operation.

It sounds like a clear request. In reality, it is not enough information to select the best filtration solution.

When only limited process data is available, a supplier has to make assumptions. Those assumptions may produce a safe, standard proposal, but probably not the best, most advanced or most cost-effective solution for the application.

Selecting an industrial liquid filter involves much more than flow rate and micron rating. A filtration expert will also want to understand:
โ€ข What liquid needs to be filtered?
โ€ข What contaminants must be removed?
โ€ข What is the solids concentration or total solids load?
โ€ข What is the particle-size distribution?
โ€ข What are the operating pressure, temperature and viscosity?
โ€ข What outlet quality must be achieved?
โ€ข Is the process continuous or batch-operated?
โ€ข Can the process be stopped for filter changes?
โ€ข What are the costs of downtime, labour and waste disposal?
โ€ข Which materials, standards and certifications are required?

Customers can sometimes find these questions excessive or time-consuming. But they are not asked to make the process more complicated. They are necessary to prevent a filter from being:
โ€ข Too small and continuously blocking
โ€ข Unnecessarily large and expensive
โ€ข Specified with an excessively fine micron rating
โ€ข Responsible for unacceptable pressure loss
โ€ข Chemically incompatible with the process liquid
โ€ข Dependent on frequent and costly element changes
โ€ข Unable to achieve the required outlet quality

The filter with the lowest purchase price is not necessarily the most economical solution. The real cost of filtration often lies in consumables, downtime, labour, cleaning, waste disposal, product loss and energy consumption.
Sometimes a simple filter bag is exactly the right answer. In other applications, a high-flow cartridge system, duplex filter, self-cleaning filter, hydrocyclone, filter press or multi-stage treatment system will deliver far better lifecycle value.

Working with a filtration expert does not mean automatically selecting the most complex technology. It means using a simple solution where possible and more advanced technology where it creates measurable value.
Good filtration does not start with a product catalogue.

Recently, we supplied Bell Dredging Pumps with several filter housings for the filtration of hydraulic oil. For this application, single-cartridge filter housings equipped with our DutchFlow and WaterLock filter elements were used. This combination effectively removes both solid contaminants and water from the oil, helping to save costs on oil changes and protecting hydraulic systems, ensuring reliable performance and reducing carbon footprint.

Thanks to our large stock, we were able to deliver these filter housings directly from our warehouse, ensuring that Bell Dredging could quickly obtain the right filtration solution.

Reliable filtration is essential for maximizing the performance and service life of hydraulic systems, especially in the demanding conditions in which Bell Dredging operates.

We are proud to contribute to the reliability of their installations with our filtration solutions and look forward to continuing this successful collaboration.

Vandaag vieren we iets moois bij Dutch Filtration.

Rik te Linde is gisteren, 23 juni, afgestudeerd als werktuigbouwkundig ingenieur aan de Hogeschool van Amsterdam.
Voor zijn afstudeerproject heeft Rik gewerkt aan een systeem voor het meten en controleren van filtermedia tijdens het verwerkingsproces. Een mooi praktisch รฉn technisch project, direct gekoppeld aan waar wij dagelijks mee bezig zijn: kwaliteit borgen, slimmer produceren en waste reduceren.

Geen theoretisch rapport dat in een la verdwijnt, maar een oplossing die we daadwerkelijk in onze productie gaan toepassen. De komende maanden gaat Rik het systeem verder bij ons implementeren.

Daar zijn we trots op.

Rik, van harte gefeliciteerd met deze mooie mijlpaal. Bedankt voor je inzet, je frisse blik en je bijdrage aan onze productieverbetering.
Ook een dank aan Martijn Roozee voor de begeleiding tijdens dit traject.

En alsof afstuderen nog niet genoeg is, vertrekt Rik vandaag naar Roemeniรซ voor het Europees Kajak (kano) Kampioenschap van 25โ€“28 juni. Dus naast een werktuigbouwkundig ingenieur hebben we ook nog een topsporter in huis.

Rik, succes in Roemeniรซ. Zet โ€™m op namens het hele team van Dutch Filtration.

As water scarcity becomes a growing global challenge, more companies are forced to use lower-quality water sources for industrial processes and water reuse applications.
The reality is that many of these water sources contain traces of hydrocarbons from industrial activities, stormwater runoff, shipping, refineries, production facilities, or aging infrastructure.

The contamination is often invisible.
And that's exactly what makes it dangerous.
Many engineers assume that installing a 5-micron cartridge filter upstream of their UF or RO system provides sufficient protection. Unfortunately, oil contamination doesn't behave like solid particles.

Small oil droplets and emulsified hydrocarbons can easily pass through conventional particle filters and eventually reach the membrane surface.
The result:
- Membrane fouling
- Increased differential pressure
- More frequent CIP cleaning
- Reduced membrane life
- Higher operating costs
- Unplanned downtime

Once oil attaches itself to a membrane surface, restoring the original performance can be difficult and expensive.
A smarter approach is to remove the oil before it ever reaches the membranes.

This is where Oillockยฎ oil absorption elements come in.
Water flows through the element at a very high flux rate while hydrocarbons are selectively absorbed by a specialized polymer media. The oil reacts with the polymer and forms a solid gel inside the filter structure.
As more oil is captured, the differential pressure gradually increases until the element reaches its capacity and physically blocks the flow.

The key advantage?

Unlike many separation technologies, a saturated Oillockยฎ element does not allow captured hydrocarbons to pass downstream. The flow simply stops, protecting the UF or RO membranes from contamination.

A relatively simple filtration step can prevent expensive membrane replacements, reduce chemical consumption, minimize downtime and extend the life of the entire water treatment system.
The question is not whether your feed water contains solids.

The question is:
