Reverse Osmosis Treatment to Remove Inorganic Contaminants from Drinking Water

摘要

The purpose of the research project was to determine the removal of inorganic contaminants from drinking water using several 'state-of-the-art' reverse osmosis membrane elements. A small 5 KGPD reverse osmosis system was utilized and five different membrane elements were studied individually with the specific inorganic contaminants added to several natural Florida ground waters. Removal data were also collected on naturally occurring substances.
