High-Flux Tubular MF Pretreatment for RO - Industrial Wastewater Recycling

摘要

MF when coupled with an appropriate chemical pretreatment can provide an attractive method for pretreatment of industrial wastewater RO systems. Compared to conventional wastewater treatment operations, MF systems have a smaller footprint and lower operating costs. In addition, high quality and consistent filtrate produced by the MF can lead to improved performance of the RO system. As observed in the field, a well-protected RO membrane can be operated effectively for 3 to 4 years before replacement is required. In the face of today's global water shortage, industries are beginning to realize that it makes good business sense to become more independent by recycling their own resource (water) for their own production processes.
