  • Page 3: Introduction

    I. Introduction The separation of dissolved solids and water using RO membranes is a pressure driven temperature dependent process. The membrane material is designed to be as permeable to water as possible while maintaining the ability to reject dissolved solids. The main system design parameters require the following: •...
  • Page 4: Pretreatment

    C. Pretreatment The RO feed water must be pretreated in order to prevent mem- brane damage and/or fouling. Proper pretreatment is essential for reliable operation of any RO system. Pretreatment requirements vary depending on the nature of the feed water. Pretreatment equipment is sold separately. The most common forms of pretreatment are described below.
