A pilot-scale ultrafiltration (UF)–nanofiltration (NF) integrated membrane system (IMS) which included a selfcleaning crossflow UF filtration process and a dual-stage NF process with a capacity of 100 m3·d−1 NF permeation water was established for seawater softening investigation. The separation perform

This study explored the effect of increasing nanofiltration (NF) permeate recovery (RNF) by recirculation and dosage of chemicals on NF separation performance, concentration polarization (CP) and accumulation of scalingprone ion concentration on NF membrane surface. The related coupling effect on sea

The essential point for a successful seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) plant is pretreatment that provides consistent and high-quality feed to SWRO membranes. Advances in membrane technology and increasing requirements on water quality have stimulated the use of ultrafiltration (UF) for SWRO pretreatm
