Assessment of an ultrafiltration pre-treatment system for a seawater reverse osmosis plant
The seawater reverse osmosis system requires extensive pre-treatment in order to ensure reliable performance. The conventional pre-treatment system involves dosing of chemicals, which requires frequent monitoring of raw water quality, and also involves adjusting the dosage. Besides being cumbersome, there is a lot of time lag involved in carrying out these measures. This calls for pre-treatment ...

Size fractionation characterisation of removed organics in reverse osmosis concentrates by ferric chloride
Reverse osmosis membrane separation is the leading method for manufacturing potable purified water. It also produces a concentrate stream, namely reverse osmosis concentrates (ROC), with 10–20% of the water, and almost all other compounds. One method for further treating this stream is by coagulation with ferric chloride. This study evaluates removed organics in ROC treated with ferric chloride. ...

Component efficiency of reverse osmosis desalination systems
Technological advancements have changed the way people perceived the world. Now we have advanced in domains such as space exploration and the notable fact to be observed here is that, we can find the solution to any problem, can’t we? The reduction of usable water levels and the increasing concerns for water scarcity in the future is a considerable threat and farsightedness suggests that it ...

Reuse and recycling of secondary effluents in refineries employing advanced multi-barrier systems
In this paper the reclamation and reuse of municipal secondary effluents, as well as the reclamation and recycling of refinery secondary effluents, are technically and economically evaluated. It is shown that both practices are feasible and sustainable, and that the reclamation costs depend largely on specific circumstances such as legal requirements, price policy, reuse application, raw water ...

Food and beverage pharmaceutical pure water treatment
【Overview】 Pure water/ultrapure water treatment equipment refers to the water in which the conductive medium in the water is almost completely removed, and the non-dissociated gas, colloid and organic matter (including bacteria) are also removed to a very low degree. The electrical conductivity is generally 0.055~0.1us/cm, the resistivity (25℃)>10x106Ω•cm, and the salt content ...

Occurrence of N-nitrosodimethylamine precursors in wastewater treatment plant effluent and their fate during ultrafiltration-reverse osmosis membrane treatment
The formation of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) is of major concern among wastewater recycling utilities practicing disinfection with chloramines. The NDMA formation potential (FP) test is a simple and straightforward method to evaluate NDMA precursor concentrations in waters. In this paper we show the NDMA FP results of a range of tertiary wastewater treatment plants that are also the source for ...

Comparison of sand and membrane filtration as non-chemical pre-treatment strategies for pesticide removal with nanofiltration/low pressure reverse osmosis membranes
Pilot plant investigations of sand and membrane filtration (microfiltration (MF)/ultrafiltration (UF)/nanofiltration (NF)/low pressure reverse osmosis (LPRO)) have been performed to treat groundwater polluted with pesticides. The results show that simple treatment, with use of aeration and sand filtration or MF/UF membranes, does not remove pesticides. However, by reducing the content of key ...

Forward osmosis for the treatment of reverse osmosis concentrate from water reclamation: process performance and fouling control
While high quality water reuse based on dual membrane filtration (membrane filtration or ultrafiltration, followed by reverse osmosis) is expected to be progressively applied, treatment and sustainable management of the produced reverse osmosis concentrate (ROC) are still important issues. Forward osmosis (FO) is a promising technology for maximising water recovery and further dewatering ROC so ...

Chemical monitoring strategy for the assessment of advanced water treatment plant performance
A pilot-scale plant was employed to validate the performance of a proposed full-scale advanced water treatment plant (AWTP) in Sydney, Australia. The primary aim of this study was to develop a chemical monitoring program that can demonstrate proper plant operation resulting in the removal of priority chemical constituents in the product water. The feed water quality to the pilot plant was ...

A New Fast Acting Low PH Cleaner Paves the Way for a New Cleaning Philosophy for Integrated Membrane Systems
Abstract For many years ultrafiltration/microfiltration (UF/MF) has been replacing multi-media filtration as a seawater reverse osmosis (RO) or nanofiltration (NF) pre-treatment system. Initially the systems were treated as individual unit operations and optimized as such. However, the similarity in the flux maintenance requirements of the particle removal membranes and the desalination ...

UF Membrane Technology
UF Membrane Technology Ultrafiltration (UF) is a variety of membrane filtration in which forces, such as pressure or concentration gradients, cause separation through the semi-permeable membrane. High molecular weight suspended solids and solutes remain in the so-called retentate while water and low molecular weight solutes pass through the membrane in the permeate (filtrate). The pore size of ...
