Formation of Organic Fouling during Membrane Desalination: The Effect of Divalent Cations and the Use of an Online Visual Monitoring Method

Reverse osmosis (RO) is the most popular technology for brackish, seawater and wastewater desalination. An important drawback of RO is membrane fouling, which reduces filtration effectiveness and increase the cost of produced water. This study addresses two important topics of membrane fouling: (i)...
