Journal ArticleDOI
Concentration polarization in ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis: a critical review
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the literature on concentration polarization in ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis is presented, with specific models such as surface renewal, and experimental methods such as laser-based refractometry, for quantification of the problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of feed temperature on permeate flux and mass transfer coefficient in spiral-wound reverse osmosis systems☆
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of feed temperature, salinity and flow rate on permeate flow and salinity was evaluated and a combined Spiegler-Kedem/film theory model described the experimental results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of thermodynamic restriction and its implications for full-scale reverse osmosis processes
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that thermodynamic equilibrium can impose a strong restriction on the performance of a full-scale reverse osmosis (RO) process under certain circumstances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effective scale control for seawater RO operating with high feed water pH and temperature
Brett Andrews,Bhasker B. Dave,Paloma López-Serrano,Shih-Perng Tsai,Rich Frank,Mark Wilf,Erineos Koutsakos +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the operating strategies and scale control issues related to both single and two-pass seawater RO plants operating at elevated feed water pH and temperature are discussed and compared.
Book ChapterDOI
Commercial Desalination Technologies
Hisham Ettouney,Mark Wilf +1 more
TL;DR: An up-to-date review of industrial units has been performed in order to present the most common features of industrial operating units as discussed by the authors, including typical design parameters, operating conditions and process performances.
