The impact of RO membrane element degradation on PFAS removal efficiency is examined at a drinking water facility responding to new regulatory limits. The study presents facility background, the regulatory context created by EPA-mandated PFAS monitoring requirements, and initial treatment response strategies. A degradation study evaluates how membrane aging affects rejection performance over time, with practical recommendations for operational optimization and membrane replacement scheduling to sustain compliance with PFAS concentration limits.
