Establishing a Baseline of Virus Removal by a Full-Scale Reverse Osmosis Sytem
Recent activity in the potable reuse field incorporates reverse osmosis (RO) processes as a requirement to provide pathogen removal and a reduction of other compounds. California has implemented the 12-10-10 […]
NF/RO Membranes Ability to Remove 1,4-Dioxane From Water Sources Used for Drinking Water Production
As research advances, compounds contained in water resources are being identified and regulated for removal during treatment chain for drinking water production. This is closely linked to the evolution of […]
Regional Experience with Small Membrane Plants Leads to Improved Design and Operations
Maryland Environmental Service (MES) operates over 200 water and wastewater facilities throughout the State of Maryland. Among these are 11 membrane plants at facilities ranging from 5,000 to 900,000 GPD […]
Established Practices, Innovative Design, and New Products: A New Generation of Ultra High Pressure Desalination
In common parlance, reverse osmosis (RO) is often described as removing salt from water. In practice however, these processes squeeze water from a salt solution resulting in concentrate to be […]
RO Permeate Stabilization for Hyperion Advanced Water Purification Facility
The Hyperion Advanced Water Purification Facility is a “proof of concept” treatment project that will provide highly treated water for multiple non-potable uses at the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) […]
Optimizing Organics Removal from Surface Water in a Coagulation / Ultrafiltration System
This paper describes how coagulant dose in an ultrafiltration system can be automatically adjusted by means of inline UV monitoring. In this way chemical consumption is minimized while ensuring an […]
The FYI on CIP: Disposal of Spent UF Membrane Cleaning Solutions
Open Platform Low-Pressure Membrane System Procurement and Design – A Case Study from Post Falls, Idaho
The City of Post Falls, Idaho owns and operates a secondary treatment Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) utilizing enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) to treat municipal wastewater generated within its service […]
The Effectiveness of Ceramic Ultrafiltration as a Pre-Treatment for SWRO at TUAS Spring Singapore
SWRO pre-treatment with polymeric MF/UF membranes initially gained a wider acceptance mainly due to its reported superior removal of particulate and colloidal foulants (absolute filtration), low footprint and its benefits […]
Innovative Alternatives for Enhanced Recovery of NF/RO Systems
Increasing demand for existing freshwater resources among a variety of beneficial uses (i.e., municipal, agricultural, industrial, and environmental) is straining available supplies to an unprecedented degree. The competition for these […]
