Featured product: fEPDM membranes
------------------------------------------------------

SSI has developed a series of fEPDM membranes for use in wastewater 
aeration.  These membranes take the flexibility of standard EPDM rubber 
and add even better fouling resistance and greater durability.

In some recent testing, fEPDM was shown to retain 30% more of its 
plasticizer content than standard EPDM after extremely aggressive 
testing -- far more abuse than the same diffusers will likely ever 
encounter in any practical application.  That means a longer service 
life and better performance over the long term.

The significance of the recent advancements made by SSI in aeration 
design would be hard to overstate -- they've been awarded a patent for 
the major improvements in diffuser durability created by their special 
treatment processes. Better membranes mean fewer plant shutdowns for 
replacements, and lower energy costs to produce the same aerobic treatment.
