Rotreat Eco-Cleaner: Engineered for Demanding Membrane Systems

A sustainable, EDTA-free solution for RO, NF, MBR, and MF membrane care

Rotreat Abwasserreinigung GmbH • 30+ Years of Industrial Water Treatment Expertise

Rotreat’s ISO 9001-certified RCDT membrane filtration system

The Membrane Challenge
Membrane-based water treatment systems — whether reverse osmosis (RO), nanofiltration (NF), membrane bioreactors (MBR), or microfiltration (MF) — must deliver peak performance every day. Yet scaling, organic fouling, and biofilms take a heavy toll on all membrane types. The consequences are significant: rising energy consumption, declining throughput, and shortened membrane service life.
Many operators are all too familiar with the problem — excessive chemical volumes, escalating costs, and growing regulatory uncertainty surrounding conventional cleaning agents. As environmental regulations tighten across the EU and beyond, operators need solutions that are both effective across multiple membrane technologies and future-proof.

The Problem with Conventional Cleaners
• High chemical volumes required
• Rising procurement and disposal costs
• EDTA-based formulations under regulatory scrutiny
• Shortened membrane replacement cycles
• Increased energy demand from fouling buildup

The Rotreat Eco-Cleaner Advantage
• Superior cleaning with less chemistry
• Measurably lower operating costs
• EDTA-free and future-proof formulation
• Extended membrane service life
• One cleaner for RO, NF, MBR, and MF systems

Rotreat: When Standard Solutions Fall Short

For over 30 years, Rotreat Abwasserreinigung GmbH has stood for technical competence in industrial water and wastewater treatment. The company develops and manufactures its own membrane filtration systems — including the patented RCDT (Radial Channel Disc Tube) module system for RO and NF applications, as well as MBR and MF configurations. With over 500 million cubic meters of wastewater treated worldwide and installations across more than 24 countries, Rotreat is called upon when complex system conditions require specialized solutions.
This deep, cross-technology expertise has been channeled into the development of the new Eco-Cleaner — a product engineered to perform across the full spectrum of membrane technologies, from high-pressure RO and NF systems to submerged MBR and MF configurations.

Key Benefits at a Glance

✓  Maximum cleaning performance against scaling, fouling, and biofilms

✓  Significantly reduced chemical consumption

✓  Noticeably lower operating costs

✓  Extended membrane service life across all membrane types

✓  EDTA-free and future-proof formulation

✓  ECompatible with RO, NF, MBR, and MF systems — no modifications required

Compatible Across All Major Membrane Technologies
Unlike conventional cleaners designed for a single membrane type, the Rotreat Eco-Cleaner is formulated for broad compatibility across the full range of industrial membrane systems:

Reverse Osmosis (RO)


High-pressure desalination, landfill leachate, industrial wastewater

Nanofiltration (NF)


Water softening, selective ion removal, process water

Membrane Bioreactor (MBR)

Municipal and industrial wastewater, leachate treatment

Membrane Bioreactor (MBR)

Pre-treatment, particle removal, beverage and pharmaceutical

More Than a Cleaner — A Strategic Decision
The Rotreat Eco-Cleaner delivers stable system performance, predictable costs, and regulatory certainty across all membrane types. Whether operators run a high-pressure RCDT reverse osmosis plant treating landfill leachate, a nanofiltration system for process water, or an MBR installation for municipal wastewater, one cleaner covers the full range. This simplifies procurement, reduces inventory, and ensures consistent membrane care across diverse installations.
