NX Filtration to enable reliable drinking  water production from challenging  surface water in Canada

Hengelo, the Netherlands – 12 May 2026

NX Filtration has been selected to supply its hollow fiber nanofiltration (HFNF)  technology to Komline Pure Water, a Canadian industrial water and wastewater  treatment company. The HFNF modules will be applied in a new drinking water  project in Canada to treat challenging surface water for the Ministry of Environment  and Parks, with McElhanney acting as Engineer of Record. 

The water source is characterized by highly variable quality, including elevated levels of  natural organic matter (NOM), color, and low UV transmittance. These conditions limit  the effectiveness of conventional treatment technologies and create challenges in  achieving stable and reliable drinking water quality. 

NX Filtration’s Hollow Fiber Nanofiltration (HFNF) technology was selected to address  these challenges through a robust and efficient treatment approach. The system  provides an effective barrier for organic compounds and micropollutants, significantly  improving downstream disinfection performance while ensuring consistent, high-quality  drinking water. By simplifying the treatment process, HFNF enables a more reliable and  operationally efficient solution compared to conventional multi-step treatment trains.  

“A key factor in this project was the ability to reliably treat highly variable surface water  while maintaining consistent performance,” said Mustafa Al-Sajry at Komline Pure Water.  “NX Filtration’s HFNF technology allows us to simplify the treatment process and improve  overall robustness, which is essential for applications where water quality conditions can  change rapidly.” 

“We are proud to support this project together with Komline Pure Water,” said Esther  Victoria Guedez, Country Manager North America at NX Filtration. “This project clearly  demonstrates how HFNF can handle highly variable surface water conditions while  improving overall treatment performance. The project highlights the growing adoption of  advanced membrane technologies to secure safe drinking water supplies from  increasingly complex water sources.”
