Nanyang Technological launches first 3D-printing plant for water filtration membranes. Nanyang Technological University announces launch of a 3D-printing facility to manufacture a new type of water treatment membrane. Made from millions of nano fibers layered on top of each and compressed into a thin membrane, the new membrane requires less maintenance and is more cost efficient. It is more resistant to breakage and bio-fouling. Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) recently announced that Nano Sun, a water technology start-up founded by a scientist from NTU, has launched a 3D-printing facility to manufacture a new type of water treatment membrane.
