Chemical and physical aspects of natural organic matter (NOM) fouling of nanofiltration membranes

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of chemical and physical interactions in natural organic matter (NOM) fouling of nanofiltration membranes is systematically investigated, and it is demonstrated that the rate of fouling is controlled by an interplay between permeation drag and electrostatic double layer repulsion.
